Ditto, doesn't make sense not to salvage something, what a waste of taxpayers money.

I'm willing to bet that every bit of classified commo gear was removed from it, regardless of any public statements.

Rumor has it the USN is concerned with shaped charge performance against steel hulls. We currently have shaped charge warheads in the Hellfire and the M1 Abrams rounds. The Navy has some very sophisticated guidance systems for torpedoes and ship to ship missiles. Increasing the effectiveness of warheads without increasing size is a worthy goal.
