In biology, a clone is an organism or cell that is genetically identical to that of a parent from which it was created. It can also refer to a derivative of an original product in the case of inanimate/non-organic objects, such as the derivatives of Metal Gear REX.[1] The term clone is derived from the Ancient Greek word κλών klōn, "twig," referring to the process whereby a new plant can be created from a twig.

Otacon: The Gears you've fought before [Solid Snake] were all basically designed and produced to serve as nuclear platforms. [Metal Gear] RAY was an exception to the rule, but even that was an anti-Metal Gear weapon designed to defeat all of the Metal Gear clones popping all over the world. Its value was still measured in terms of the framework of nuclear strategy.
