No credible sources to confirm existence of this. Whilst not going as far as a deliberate hoax, it does seem to be a fabrication, rather than a real missile. Andy Dingley (talk) 15:42, 27 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

A Google search turns up 370 hits. Are you sure it doesn't exist? Hawkeye7 (talk) 03:56, 28 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Google searching for orcs and hobbits turns up even more, but I don't believe in them either.
The problem is the low quality of these sources. I've seen nothing of them which is credible and in depth. I think that there is "a thing" (looking more like a jet model aircraft than anything else) which is the Makedon, but it's not a credible weapon or capable of carrying a useful warhead.

  • Keep Delete - Google finds a few hits at "Hellenic Stand-off Cruise-1", seems notable. Smmurphy(Talk) 03:05, 2 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
But as Andy Dingley says, none of the hits seem reliable, mostly forums and blogs. Perhaps this was a rumor that wasn't real, perhaps it was a secret project that didn't work, perhaps many things. Who knows? I changed my !vote to delete. Smmurphy(Talk) 12:54, 3 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

  • Delete per WP:V; no reliable sources in the article or have been presented at this AfD to confirm that this is not a hoax, and is indeed notable. K.e.coffman (talk) 06:11, 7 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
