What class of submarines are in the foreground? They look like Skipjacks but the rear deck is wide as a those on a missile boat but not as long.

Turns out they decommissioned US missile boats awaitng disposal/recycling. The middle section with the missile tubes were removed and the 2 ends rejoined together.

This is a shot from the Inactive Ships Facility in Bremerton. The Halibut is in the background with (3) 598's in the foreground.
