i would suggest just one change in SOP. No more PC kids glove treatment of pirates. Shoot to kill. send a little message to pirates that being in the pirate bidness is a death sentence.
this is the open fukking ocean. our tactical advantage there is so overwhelming it is laughable. the pirate problem should have been over before it was even started. simply put out the word that anyone found in a shipping lane 100s of miles at sea, will be blowed the fukk out of the water, no questions asked.
but, the problem continues because handwringing faggots want to be "professional". fukk that. kill every fukking last one of those fukks and they will find a new line of work quickly.

Or maybe the billionaire ship owners don't want their fleet used as target practice.
Use your brain. You want to stop piracy by blowing up all suspicious ships?
Try to engage the issue with something other than impotent rage.

the pirates don't roll in container ships. they have smaller craft.
it would be extremely simple to know who is supposed to be in what shipping lane, when. all shipping could also have IFF equipment aboard which is used to Identify Friend or Foe. This technology has been around 50 or 60 years. If someone is identified as a friend, they pass. If not, we blow them the fukk out of the water.

A well armed group of 10 or so should be more than sufficient to take out the skiffs
too expensive.
simply train the existing crews to provide security. these ships have high bridges. a dual 50 cals, port and starboard along with maybe one up in the bow would provide plenty of protection.
but, it shouldn't even be necessary. there should be patroling of the routes out to offshore shipping lanes and then a simple policy of blowing the fukk out of anyone with no reason to be in said lanes. handwringing faggots will site international water soveriegnty, but, WGARA.
this is an extremely easy security issue to fix. trouble is, it takes a little balls to do it. until the pirates develop submarine capabilities, it really is extremely easy to wipe them out before they get within sight of their prey.
This used to be NWP9, which is/was an unclassified legal pub all commanders of war ships and aircraft were responsible to know.
7.3.4.1 The 12-Nautical Mile Territorial Sea. When the law of neutrality was codified in the Hague Conventions of 1907, the 3-nautical mile territorial sea was the accepted norm, aviation was in its infancy, and the submarine had not yet proven itself as a significant weapons platform. The rules of neutrality applicable to the territorial sea were designed primarily to regulate the conduct of surface warships in a narrow band of water off neutral coasts. The 1982 Law of the Sea Convention provides that coastal nations may lawfully extend the breadth of claimed territorial seas to 12 nautical miles. The U.S. claims a 12-nautical mile territorial sea and recognizes the right of all coastal nations to do likewise.
It goes on and on, etc. 12 miles off a coast, it's "game on" to protect yourself from pirates. Basically, it's not up to the US to protect idiots from legally defending themselves. If Somali pirates take over your ship with rafts then Darwin wins once again.

They should just hire the Russians.
You'll notice pirates haven't fucked with a Russian ship since

Uhhh, I did get it, Morron. (Oh, and btw, before you embarrass yourself further by trying to run spelling smack on me, I spelled it that way intentionally to match your name.)
I was just commenting on the way he said it. Struck me as a bit funny, s'all.
