At Some Point, Piracy Becomes Intolerable

[sledgemeister]

Cant the pirates be used to train green marines or seals in combat?
I mean they may as well be useful for something (pirates)

Or perhaps get countries to do a whip around to pay for some of the cost and place a few unmanned armed drones in the air with the warning any boat with out clearance found in the area autmatically will be fired upon and sunk?
Would be a good way to test new and wonderful Air to Surface weapons.

BOTH! The pirates are far less expensive however.  Bill T.

The pirates really aren't as annoying as the UN either.
