What Massive Mystery Object Is Northrop Moving By Barge From Redondo Beach This Weekend?

The secret cargo is only being described as a "U.S. Navy demonstration project" that is destined for San Diego.

BY TYLER ROGOWAYOCTOBER 18, 2019

The relatively quaint harbor in Redondo Beach, California is about to become a scene out of a military or sci-fi thriller. Something quite large and very secretive, only described as a "U.S. Navy demonstration project," is going to be trucked from Northrop Grumman's campus in North Redondo Beach a few miles to the harbor, where it will be loaded onto a barge and shipped off to San Diego for testing. In all, the staging for the transfer from land to sea and the object itself will take up a whopping 70 parking spots near the pier. 

The Breeze, a local paper that covers the southern Los Angeles area, was first to report on the mysterious operation that is planned to begin Thursday night and run through the weekend. Our reader Scott Hodges (@Scottyhodges) reached out to us with the heads up.

Interesting, King's Harbor is not that big and I have never know it to be used for any type of cargo.
