What is this Mystery Ship?

I came across this ship in a north channel close to Rathlin Island. It was stationary.

The interesting thing about it was that neither the TDC, nor any other mechanism for identifying targets, recognized it. Nor was it identified on the charts, so I did have that option enabled. As it if it wasn't there. I was able to torpedo it, multiple times, and it exploded in flames, but never suffered any damage.

It has two huge lights on top. There was a smaller ship next to it, that was identified and easily sunk, but not it.

Is this some kind of navigation aid that is there for appearances, but is not an actual target that can be destroyed?
