What Will Happen If Somali Pirates Continue Attacking US Navy Ships?
Here is a video of piracy that took place in this century there is no romanticised drama in these these pirates, they were all unemployed men with lives they were armed and dangerous and every attacker of almost every commercial vessels they encounter the bigger the target the better
They hijack cargo ships and commercial vessels, taking the crew hostage and demanding large ransoms. The problem extends from the Gulf of Aden in the south along the East African coast to the Indian Ocean, where pirates from war-torn Somalia sail the seas in small boats hoping for a big payoff.to the Indian Ocean, where pirates from war-torn Somalia sail the seas in small boats in the hope of a big payoff.
On the other hand an international Fleet is determined to stop the pirates one of the ships in the Fleet is DDG-51 Arleigh Burke bound for the US Navy part of the European Union task force consisting of 10 ships called Operation Atlanta.
In this region, many cargo ships pass through and stretch to the horizon, which is why pirates are very active in this region because it is a rich target area.
Pirates used to only attack freighters sailing very close to the Somali coastline, but now they are attacking large cargo ships and fishing boats on the Kenyan frontier and some areas in the south.
To do so they have changed their tactics not only using small high-powered boats to chase and board large Cargo ships, but now they also launch attacks from so-called aircraft carriers often these ships are acquired from piracy to be used as supply bases on the high seas.
To prevent daily attacks the warship operates two helicopters that fly for recognition and surveillance, both helicopters are equipped with high-powered infrared cameras.
they also built armoured safe rooms called sideboards where the crew could lock themselves in while still in control of their ship but looking down on these giant ships the situation still felt a bit surreal
the pirates are now getting bolder instead of running away they have even started trying to repel the military forces in the area, they are utilising the rule that the military forces will not dare to return fire firing back at the pirates could lead to hostages being killed so these pilots need to be able to hold their fire
despite being on duty to hunt down pirates in a long operation the life of the ocean for that krulibasio tries to fill their free time by cooking Italian dishes like pasta watching football on satellite TV there is even an Espresso and Gelato bar that is open almost 24 hours on this ship
when close to shore the ship will send helicopters to fly over pirate encampments by pegging activity on land the commander tries to predict when and where groups might try to attack and tries to stop them before they even leave the shore.
lebasio is not alone he shares all his intel with the entire fleet of straightforward troops The goal is to disrupt the pirate activity that goes on all the time this is similar to a chess game where every move is not always a move the difference is this is more dangerous especially for those working on the front lines
