[QUOTE="YFCvii, post: 117398, member: 3252"] [CENTER]Trump would then appear correct with "fake media" appears the original Corvette wasn't that bad at all ... then probably outsourced with "Chinese parts" for WWII ... damn The name Corvette was first used on ships in the 1670s by the French Navy. These small, light, and fast ships would often be used as escorts for larger ships. While they generally were under 100 feet long and only had one gun deck, their maneuverability and speed gave them a unique advantage against the larger ships. Literally a Corvette could run circles around larger ships and in the era of cannons fast moving targets were hard to hit. The British would keep Corvettes in their fleet during the colonial incursions into the rivers of the Far-East and Africa, at this point most Corvettes were steam powered.
