Corvette
-
A war vessel, ranking next below a frigate, and having
usually only one tier of guns; -- called in the United States navy a
sloop of war. -
Noun.
A fast [warship] that is usually smaller than a [frigate] but larger than patrol craft. These ships are generally well-armed and in use mostly by smaller navies that do not need or cannot afford larger warships. Corvettes generally carry enough [firepower] to sink ships many times its size, and can thus provide navies with a symetrical response to a threat for asymetrical cost. They do not have the endurance of larger ships and are therefore not suited for long-term operations (with the possible exception of Israeli corvettes, which, due to their prohibition from the [Suez Canal], must travel all the way around Africa to reach their operating areas in the Red Sea).
NATO standard designations are: [FS] (corvette), and [FSG] (guided misslie corvette).

The current overly plastic turd marketed by GM as a Z06 Corvette can go over 190 mph. This is the main argument when owners and prospective owners bash other all other cars. Never mind the US speed limit is 70mph and these losers would crap on themselves at over 120. Their cars are driven no faster than a POS [Chevy Malibu].
The best thing about not owning a Corvette is that they are a bigger [cop magnet] than an INDY car. Reason being they are not likely to pull over a Porsche 911 or Ferrari cause they dont know what the hell it is, although some cops mistake Ferrari for corvette cause it has round tail lights and must be a [Curvette], Duh! So basically you have a car that a Jealous, idiot cop knows and can brag to his buddies, I wrote a black covette for 59 in a 45. Really he was on doing 35. This is the main reason Corvettes and Vipers are seen in [parade mode], 15 mph under the speed limit. -
a brand name for a type of sports car (= a fast, low car) made by Chevrolet
