M80 Stiletto from the Italian Stiletto, a long and narrow knife or dagger. The Stiletto's unusual shape and patented M-hull provides a stable yet fast platform for mounting electronic surveillance equipment or weapons, or for conducting special operations. The hull design does not require foils or lifting devices to achieve a smooth ride at high speeds in rough conditions. Its shallow draft means the M80 Stiletto can operate in littoral and riverine environments and potentially allows for beach landings. The faceted design suggests that the vessel has a low radar signature (i.e., stealth) in the frontal aspect and somewhat so from the
Name-bearing type illustration or description itself), even if no longer in existence. Name-bearing type Under the "International Code of Zoological Nomenclature" ("Code"), the name-bearing type is the biological type that determines the application of a name. Each animal taxon regulated by the "Code" at least potentially has a name-bearing type. The name-bearing type can be either a type genus (family group), type species (genus group), or one or more type specimens (species group). For example, the name "Mabuya maculata" (Gray, 1839) has often been used for the Noronha skink (currently "Trachylepis atlantica"), but because the name-bearing type of the former, a lizard
