Or They're Just Trousering The Money

The Royal Navy is building invisible warships.

At least, that's what they're telling us.

    Ahhhhh, very clever.

    Although in that picture you posted, you can see the battleship if you get real close then slowly move away; it's like one of those magic-eye pictures.

    That would actually be more effective, I think; only a few people would be able to see them, and most of them would think it's a bicycle or a fish or something.

    Cool, sounds like they are picking up on the tests run back during the War to hide ships. Hope they have better luck than the US Navy. About all Project Rainbow did was turn a ship into a great big microwave oven.
    And no one had any popcorn.

    Frankly I'd rather see them resurrect Pykrete

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.
