Ship comes steaming into Mogadishu harbor.
Despite the outlines of mannequins in the windows, it is unmanned and under radio control from overhead satellites.
40 megaton device in the hold detonates, leaving a 30-mile wide crater.
Problem solved, message delivered.
TimO,
Great idea.
A drone ship.
What Tim said! But, just for the fun of it, I volunteer to crew a Q. Well, scratch volunteer, I need a paycheck. But if there are any jobs killing pirates, I am available. Put me on a well equipped ship with surface radar and a minigun, and we are happy camper!
