Sea Shadow (IX-529) is an experimental stealth ship built by Lockheed for the United States Navy to determine how a low radar profile might be achieved and to test high stability hull configurations which have been used in oceanographic ships. The Hughes Mining Barge, or HMB-1, is a submersible barge. Sea Shadow was relocated with the HMB-1 to the Suisun Bay Reserve Fleet in Benicia, CA in 2006.
