- During the Second World War the U.S. Navy deployed a large number of three types of motor torpedo boats: the Higgins measuring 78 feet and ELCO measuring 77 and 80 feet.
- Every model could be distinguished from the others, apart from by its length, by configuration, weapons and various other details.
- The 80 foot ELCOs represented the most numerous class: they were realized in five series, for a total of about 300 models.
- Built in mahogany and pushed by three 1,350cv Packard 4M-2500 engines (taken to 1,500 in the latest series), these vessels easily exceeded 40 knots.
- The equipment and weapons were constantly updated and improved due to experience acquired in the field and their changing roles.
