Naming[edit]

Is "M80 Stiletto" the ship's type or the ship's name? If the latter, it should be italicised as such. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 03:55, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

In glancing thru the available refs, it's clear tbat "Stiletto" is used as the name, but I'm not so sure about "M80" (being italicised that is). I'd support a move to M80 Stiletto. That said, speaking of refs, there are quite a few dead ones on this page (and a couple duplicates I got rid of), but it seems there is plenty of info available about this boat, so resolving this which ever way shouldn't be a problem.

And I just noticed the last paragraph, about the RQ-20 trials, has "Stiletto", so possibly a clue? As for dead refs, the Internet Archive helps there. Usually. Sometimes. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 08:47, 14 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

supercomputer[edit]

" The Stiletto can also carry surveillance UAVs to provide reconnaissance for the SEAL team, and, using a clustered supercomputer on board, will be able to send real-time images to the team on shore." this isnt cited. any reason why a supercomputer (which is a defined thing) would be needed to send images from a uav to a shore party ? 46.15.60.164 (talk) 19:14, 17 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
