[3][4] MV Stoker was constructed by the Damen Song Cam Shipyards, located in Haiphong, Vietnam, and was launched on May 21, 2015.
Each ship contains an LR5 submarine rescue system submersible, a decompression chamber, and enhanced on-board medical facilities.
The exact resting place of Edsall was unknown, as she was alone in combat when she was sunk, and the only records of her fight were maintained by the Imperial Japanese Navy.
[citation needed] During an unrelated, undisclosed mission off the coast of Christmas Island in mid-2023,[5] Stoker discovered the wreck of Edsall.
The shipwreck was located by "advanced robotic and autonomous systems normally used for hydrographic survey capabilities," according to Vice Admiral Mark Hammond, head of the Royal Australian Navy.
