Indeed, there can be all kinds of misunderstandings. I recently came
across
an anecdote that in WWII the M3 Lee/Grant tank was first known to German
intelligence as the 'Pilot' tank. Before they actually met the tank in
North
Africa spies had obtained some early photos of it marked 'Pilot' ( =
prototype), and "naturally" assumed this was the name of the tank.
