The Navy Has a Top-Secret Vessel It Wants to Put on Display

Anybody want some top-secret seagoing vessels? The Navy has a pair it doesn't need anymore. It has been trying to give them away since 2006, and they're headed for the scrap yard if somebody doesn't speak up soon.

One is called Sea Shadow. It's big, black and looks like a cross between a Stealth fighter and a Batmobile. It was made to escape detection on the open sea. The other is known as the Hughes (as in Howard Hughes) Mining Barge. It looks like a floating field house, with an arching roof and a door that is 76 feet wide and 72 feet high. Sea Shadow berths inside the barge, which keeps it safely hidden from spy satellites.

We spent all that money on them and they didn't even get to kill any brown people?!

What a crime.

You don't know that.

This looks like a yellowman killer anyway...

I'd take it off their hands.... Even have my own dock for it.




..... Pity about those damn weapons export rules.

If you ain't white you brown in uncle sam's eyes.

If given the chance, I bet Pastrana would ride his motorcycle on water and launch off it.
