Not quite the HMS Vanguard but still nice to see on watch.

The one thing I’ve never understood about Western use of naval power.
We don’t use it.
Why weren’t the Western navies out for blood off Somalia shutting down these joke pirates? We have these highly advanced warships and let goons in speed boats hold world shipping hostage.
Like they’d show any more backbone against Iran.

I think we need a bunch of movable reefs to tear out the bottoms of the Iranian Navy.

Is that a JAS-39 Gripen off the stern?

I hope it will never be renamed the HMS Jihadi.
