Navy Stealth Ship Headed To Scrap Heap
A super stealth, James-bond style Navy ship is headed to the scrap heap. The Sea Shadow was built in 1985 by DARPA and Lockheed Martin. It was the Navy's first experimental stealth ship. The Navy had planned to salvage the ship by selling it or putting it on display, but after five years and millions of dollars spent there weren't any viable takers. It's now slated for dismatling and recycling, reports Yahoo!News. The ship was the inspiration for the stealth ship in the 1997 James Bond film, "Tomorrow Never Dies."
