a thought on how to end piracy in the gulf of aden
03 December 2008
Things in the Gulf of Aden have gotten pretty ridiculous. Piracy in the 21st century? Sounds like the early nineteenth. The warships there are having a hard time keeping up, so I say let's try something else:
Q ships. During WW2 they took merchant ships and armed them with concealed weapons to lure in U-boats. The idea was to make them think the target was harmless, then blow them out of the water when they got close. An old tanker with some concealed rocket launchers, Phalanx guns and a few platoons of Marines would do the trick.
