Development time mismatch

The article's current first sentence tells, that the W34 was developed and deployed during the mid-60ies, but further on are three different applications of that warhead listed, each of them with a production start in 1958?

So the production of the (only) three devices using a W34 warhead had started about five years prior to it's very self development? Sounds quite improbable to me, really very improbable. Should that really be true, it thus would be a very interesting fact begging to be explicitly stated (and maybe explained in further detail) for clarification. --213.142.97.249 (talk) 23:14, 17 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
