OT naval:Sea Shadow to be scrapped?

very cool article. had it been posted anywhere but soh, i never would have bothered waiting for all those flash ads to load, and wouldn't have read it. this is one of the few places i know that it'll be worth the aggravation.
 
Interesting on the scrapping thoughts...given its stealth design, the Navy would have to secure it to protect any secrets it may
hold. Also, given it's material composition, that's another thing to contend with for mothballing it. I saw a documentary on what they do to mothball
ships, and the caretaker of the "ghost fleet" said it costs about $20K a year per ship to keep them ready for possible reactivation.

It would be a shame just to send it to the Boneyard.....
