That is strange...? Wonder where this is and why??

WTF? :shock: Ok, it's replica, but why sink it??

That would be the one formerly displayed on the Intrepid, acquired by and sunk some years ago at a recreational scuba facility for divers to play with. It has been discussed on a few threads here before.
