Carbon fiber Stiletto boat runs down baddies at 60 knots

whether you had any urge whatsoever to try to your hand at drug trafficking by water while these “weird” profitable times sort themselves out, uh, you may want to reevaluate your options. The ever-so-stealthy Stiletto has come to life after tracking down a remarkably quick drug-running boat approach Florida; the not good guys were cruising at 42 knots, but that comedian book-esque thing you’re undoubtedly peering at above can reach speeds of up to 60 knots. The

double-M-shaped hull enables it to navigate in extraordinarily shallow waters without trouble, and a plethora of sensors and radars give it all the capability it needs to track down goons. rarely adequate, it’s having a somewhat difficult duration finding a government agency to truly shout domestic, but whether it continues to keep the coke out of our seas, we’d say it’ll win by some hearts soon sufficient.
