Cost per kg edit
I just looked at their 2022 annual report and it indicates they removed 923,000kg for a total expenditure of about €9M. That's VERY a different cost than is indicated in the article. Is it not acceptable to use their audited annual report as a source? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:8800:3B3:A600:D0CD:8C0A:CF9D:ACC0 (talk) 23:44, 28 April 2024 (UTC)
Excessive amount of detail in this article edit
This article is disproportionately detailed for a relatively minor research organisation. The History and Research sections in particular are excessively long. I have never seen an article for another research group with entire separate paragraphs devoted to every single paper the group has published, and a summary of the group's activities for every calendar year of its existence. I suggest condensing these two sections into a couple of paragraphs. Scleractinian (talk) 13:46, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
Design # vs unit # confusion edit
I can't tell from their reports whether they distinguish design versions from the identifying # of each system. For Systems 01-03 they sometimes refer to the design by the name of its implementation. For the Interceptors it's more clear that there are many models using the same design, but only the Original has a clearly distinguished design-name. If anyone finds a catalog of design versions, please link to it. – SJ + 20:14, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
