They've so far been reluctant to copy paste this strategy to other emerging ports they've created such as this in Africa. Probably because pirates get spanked
It's a swarm tactic. Lots of small missile boats versus battleship. Crappy boats, junks, barges, fishing boats, disguised. It seems. You're talking hundreds, getting orders from the military, and they roll up as not being identified, until they fire on a battleship, or coast guard. It doesn't quite work like that anymore, because the interception, radar, and penetration a Battleship has is much better. But it's an active threat, distinguishing between what's what. Kill them all. War it would be an interesting encounter. It simply paints it all red, as it always has done in conflict. Ah look it's a kaboom. But that is advancing to hide its status. Why, it's not defense. Fishing vessel doesn't need missiles.
The piracy in the South China Sea has been historic.
In Africa huge, but forget which country started doing it. Because it's cheaper than making battleships. Just get the monkeys to sink their own craft. Imagine that firing from a junk. It's gonna burn a hole right through it. Nevermind its muntion store getting covered in fish guts.
