     Yup, this seems to happen to me on the ninth level.  I have never
found a fix for it.  Maybe it is a submarine shooting at you?
Whatever it is, I have never successfully blown it up. 

     I found that this particular game was too easy anyway, so I never
bothered much to try to kill this "invisible" ship (maybe it is a
top-secret Soviet "Stealth Destroyer" ;-).  If anyone has discovered a
solution to this funny bug (or maybe it is a feature), please post a
short message to the net...enquiring minds would like to know.
