1952 the EX-122 concept car, which had been in development since 1951 and is the first of the hand-built Corvettes, is officially named “Corvette” after a type of fast warship. GM used the “EX” codes to name the EXperimental vehicles before they received a definitive name. Sports car aficionado and GM Vice President Harley Earl is the major force behind the design and development of the vehicle. Together with Bob McLean Earl formed a team that would be responsible for realizing the EX-122. On January 10, 1953, the Corvette concept car debuts at GM Motorama in New York City. The 1953 prototype had chrome script above the license plate frame with the name of the car. "Corvette" script also appeared above the front grille. Both scripts were removed on the actual production model

I've highlighted the common misconception. WW2 Corvettes were by no mean "fast" warships. 16ish knots or 30kph is all they were good for. Destroyers were good for about 40knots. Even cruisers and battleships were good for about double the speed of a Corvette.
