Get the Corvette Widow mug.Probably the absolute best in the American car line up today, which is saying something, considering the fact that 'Merica is the best country in the world. The 'Vette is usually backed by a Small Block Chevy V8, and a 4/6 speed transmission depending on the generation. So far, Chevy's made a Stingray Corvette in every good generation of Corvettes. The newest one being the 2014 C7 Corvette. Look it up. Read about it. Look at it. Worship it. This message brought to you by GM. Good evening, 'Merica.

Get the corvette stingray mug.Related Words
Noun.
1. 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).
