Crossword Genius

Ships that are fast? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

fleet

This clue is a double definition.

'ships' is the first definition.
(eg a naval fleet)

'are fast?' is the second definition.
(similar in meaning)

'that' is the link.

(Other definitions for fleet that I've seen before include "Collection of company cars" , "Fast kind of armada?" , "Ships - quick!" , "vehicles owned by a company" , "Swift; armada" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
