This video is from 2012, but apparently it was just uploaded. It shows some private American Security Contractors dealing with some Somali pirates who were attempting to highjack a cargo vessel in the Indian Ocean.

Funny how all that crap stopped when the ships started fighting back.

WTH - M16's ? How 'bout a "Ma Deuce"? Punch some larger holes!
Maybe a 20mm would work?

So that contractor can put larger holes into his own boat? Did anyone else notice his first few shots hit the handrail in front of him?
We hired similar folks on every one of our critical project shipments. The contracts I reviewed were pretty clear.

First shot cleared the gunwale, shots two through four bounced right back, I'm surprised he did kill his buddy. He did it again when he switched positions.
P
I thought those guys were pros.
Yeah, that was a clusterphuck. Did you notice the guy on the lower deck?
The Navy unit I was attached to provided security for USNS ships and cargo ships. We had a couple of hairy moments where flares from our M203 were deployed and warning shots(roe) were fired but no actual fire fights. I think the fact that we did have M2s, M240s and Mk19 grenade launchers mounted on the rails of the ship fwd, port, stbd and aft, making them highly visible deterred some shhit. Cleaning those damn things was a daily, salty chore.
Ruskies .... No Pfukc Around!
As always, the comments are best. Russian warning shots. Har.....

They need to learn how to aim.
Nice guns but to many misted shots Damb.
I would love to be a security guard on one of those cargo ships. Shooting Somali pirates for fun and profit.
Buddy of mine is retired SEAL.
Buddy of his was in that ship or a similar one.
(2 m4s on each side of the boat)
As soon as the big boat shoots back--Somalis leave.

You don't want them to leave or they'll just attack someone else.
The Russians know how to handle stuff.. as they are not encumbered by adhering to whatever is politically correct this week....
our government should start taking a lesson from the Russians...
