• Keep - A vehicle having been put into production is not a requirement for inclusion. A planned vehicle is fine as long as it meets our notability requirements. In this case it seems the article is properly sourced and its reference is a secondary source in the form of a published book. Just because its not super significant doesn't mean the article needs to be deleted. Meszzy² (talk) 23:02, 5 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Withdrawing in favour of deletion. See new vote below. Meszzy² (talk) 07:03, 10 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete: There is not significant coverage that a planned tank, a concept of a prototype, is worthy of notice". I would not be against merging to T29 Heavy Tank. Otr500 (talk) 02:27, 8 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - So I decided to do my due diligence and try and find where in the book the tank is referenced, and so I went and skimmed through all 452 pages of the book (fun) looking for it, but I didn't find any mention. I may have missed it but if Otr500 also couldn't find a mention of it (see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/T99 Heavy Tank), I'm leaning towards it not being in there. Since it doesn't look like we can verify it, and as we don't seem to have other sources or mentions anywhere, I'm inclined to believe that this vehicle not only doesn't exist because it was never put into production, but quite literally just doesn't exist. Thus I'm not in favour of merging as it seems we cannot verify its existence and am switching my keep vote to a delete vote. Meszzy² (talk) 07:03, 10 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
