The bizarre black Sea Shadow is heading for the scrap heap.
The ship, which resembles a stealth fighter airplane, cost the U.S. Navy $195 million to build and operate, and was " never intended for missions, just testing."
And it hasn't exactly been getting regular oil changes either. A Lockheed Martin spokesman told Fox that the company "hasn't had anything to do with the ship for at least four to five years"

I helped build that thing years ago. It worked too well.
If you read the book on the Skunk Works you'll get most of the story.
