This vessel isn't a recent addition to the US fleet; instead, it's been operated by the Military Sealift Command for over a decade. Yet, its mission profile defies conventional cargo ships. Unlike typical vessels, it does not carry cargo, do not stop for resupply, and notably, it hasn't broadcast its location via the Automatic Identification System (AIS) since 2017. Its lack of markings, name, or flag has earned it the moniker "ghost ship," further emphasizing its covert nature.
