M80 Stiletto
The M80 Stiletto is an American prototype naval ship using advanced stealth technologies. [2] The M80 was designed by the M Ship Company then built by Knight and Carver, as an experimental testbed ship for The Pentagon's Office of Force Transformation.It is notable for its innovative pentamaran hull design and advanced carbon fiber composite construction.
Sea Shadow (IX-529)
Sea Shadow was built in 1984 to examine the application of stealth technology on naval vessels and was used in secret until a public debut in 1993. In addition, the ship was designed to test the use of automation to reduce crew size. The ship was created by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), the U.S. Navy and Lockheed. Sea Shadow was developed and built at Lockheed's ...

M80 Stiletto
The M80 Stiletto is a twin-M-hull vessel. It is 88ft in length with a 40ft beam, providing a rectangular deck area. When fully loaded the vessel's draught is 3ft. The M80 Stiletto can reach speeds of 50kt to 60kt. The vessel creates an air cushion by recapturing the bow wave and using its energy.
Stiletto Stealth Ships: Look Different. Ride Different. Buy Different

Sea Shadow (IX-529) Experimental Navy Stealth Demonstrator
Taking this knowledge, Lockheed engineers applied the same concept to a ocean-going vessel and this work begat the "Sea Shadow" (IX-529) - the world's first stealth ship to ever grace the water. The initial Sea Shadow design was actually intended for submarine tests and involved a cigar-shaped hull covered over in faceted plates.
Juliet Marine Systems Ghost
Ghost uses a dual-pontoon super-cavitating hull, known as the small waterplane-area twin-hull (SWATH), to run at top speed through 10 ft (3.0 m) seas.It is gyro-stabilized; control is provided by 22 underwater control surfaces. Below eight knots, Ghost sits in the water on its centerline, 38 ft (12 m) - long module; faster than this, the marine aluminum buoyant hulls lifts the main hull out of ...
