hull Explanation: It seems that in addition to vessels, "hull" is also used for vehicles, e.g.: MRAP vehicles usually have "V" shaped hulls to deflect away any explosive forces originating below the vehicle, thereby protecting the vehicle and its passenger compartment. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MRAP_(armored_vehicle) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 16 mins (2009-05-01 18:50:34 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Συγγνώμη, Τέττα, μόλις πρόσεξα ότι δεν πρόκειται για τη γάστρα του οχήματος. Θα το κοιτάξω αλλιώς. Καλό βράδυ. |
