The guy I got the F-15 from ended up with a brand new torpedo the same
way. He used to buy their shipment cases as surplus and due to a mixup at
the facility that was disposing of the containers, a full one was
loaded. The Navy gave birth to a full grown cow when they found out about
it. It had the guidance section as well as the warhead (if I recall
correctly) installed.
