From WIkipedia: "PT boats were a variety of torpedo-armed fast attack craft used by the United States Navy in World War II to attack larger surface ships. "PT" is the US hull classification symbol for "Patrol Torpedo". The PT boat squadrons were nicknamed "the mosquito fleet". The Japanese called them "devil boats". The original pre World War I torpedo boats were designed with "displacement" hulls. The PT boats used in World War II were built using the planing-type hull form developed for racing boats. Both types were designed to strike at larger warships with torpedoes. They were much less expensive than large warships. PT boats were much faster, smaller, and cheaper than conventional (displacement hull) vessels. During World War II, American PT boats engaged enemy destroyers and other surface craft. PT boats also operated as gunboats against enemy small craft. The primary anti-ship armament was two to four Mark 8 torpedoes.
