The article does not have a source and seems to be made up of several contradictory original researches by several editor, resulting a Chimera article.
I tried a search myself and its seems mainstream media chiefly uses the term either as peacock term or as a relative term that compares with "weapon". See: [1][2][3] Codename Lisa (talk) 23:02, 10 March 2015 (UTC)
- Listing V1 etc. is no complete nonsense, but after all this is still a personal list: delete. –Be..anyone (talk) 09:47, 11 March 2015 (UTC)
- Comment - The first problem is that this page is mistitled. It should be List of weapons regarded as superweapons. That's not a dictionary definition, a subject to which superweapon would seem to be inevitably consigned. Assuming a name change, it's a matter of sourcing — which the current piece does not have. It does seem like a very reasonable and probably sourceable list, however, which puts me square in the middle. Carrite (talk) 16:56, 11 March 2015 (UTC)
- "Regarded" is a weasel word. Regarded by whom? (Unless the answer is "the whole world", WP:NOTESSAY.) In my sources above, Su PAK FA, an unmanned sub and a ship-grade cannon are called superweapons. Best regards, Codename Lisa (talk) 17:56, 11 March 2015 (UTC)
