In January 2012, the Spanish Navy Replenishment Ship called the Patino was conducting escort duties for merchant vessels in the Indian Ocean. One night, the Patino was waiting off the coast of Somalia for a Cargo ship when the unexpected happened; a group of pirates attempted to board the warship.

Yes, big warships have to be careful around coasts and islands due to this. Coastal vessels being very cost effective and dangerous to big warships is nothing new. That's why for example, the Finnish defense force navy uses exclusively coastal vessels. They have no desire to go into open ocean. They would much rather navigate their island heavy coast and torpedo/missile down huge Russian destroyers and cruisers.

As a somali I've noticed that the international media fails to cover that some of these "pirates" are just normal fishermen who are mistaken for pirates and then shot at. I've heard a few of these stories. Trigger happy privateers are abroad most of these ships instead of soldiers so you can imagine the abuse of power that is possible. I mean it's not like there will ever be an investigation.

"But Somali families need their children." For unpaid labor and when that labor cannot suffice, they join gangs and become pirates or child soldiers. "But children need their families." That is why they only come during the weekends and return to mandatory education. You can be homeschooled, but your parents have to be wealthy. Also children really don't need their families. They need guidance, which they can get from anyone who is willing and proper.

Sadly this is a problem for any modern navy in peace time. Any unidentified vessel could come in contact with an extremely big warship, even an aircraft carrier (This happened to the french nuclear aircraft carrier Charle de Gaulle in November 2021 for example) because in peace time they aren't allowed to open fire before identifying a real threat. A surprise attack on your most crucial warships just before declaring war is a really serious threat to many navy around the world and one of their biggest weakness.

It would have been cool to see what M2 .50 cal machine guns and M203 grenade launchers would do to a boat like that.

That same year the Wave Knight was present when a British couple was kidnapped by pirates and we weren't allowed to open fire. Allegedly so we didn't endanger the couple, but in reality we had to get direct permission to open fire from London and permission wasn't given. It wasn't long after that that attitudes changed. In 2011 the RFA Fort Victoria had an open brig built under the flight deck for storing the pirates we captured. They were then transported to Kenya for trial.

That's not the whole story. The pirates knew what they were doing (but it went utterly wrong). They attacked the Spanish warship because it looked like the US warship from a previous failed assault, a US resupply ship to the nearby Nimitz class super carrier "USS Carl Vinson" - which launched 4 sorties and blew the pirates' mother ship out of the water. It was on TV all over the world.

It should happen to all pirates. I think every ship that's required to sail in areas known for pirates should have arms enough to fight off an attack like this, or alternately have armed guards to protect the ship.

A ship at sea can pretty much carry anything it wants. The problem is when that ship enters the territorial waters of a country and is thus bound by that country's laws. Most of the "armed contractors" are stationed on so-called "arsenal ships". They meet with the cargo ships in international waters and transfer the armed guards there, then reverse the process just before the cargo ship enters port.

I remember holding an internet conversation with an ex-USMarine who was working as an engineer on a cargo ship. He suddenly apologised and disappeared only to return about half an hour later to relate how he'd had to disuade a group of pirates using an assault rifle kept for that purpose.

Just to be exact: a replenishment ship is not a warship, just because it’s belongs to the Navy. I wouldn’t be surprised if the Spanish sent this ship with this purpose willingly, as it easily can be mistaken for a cargo ship (which indeed is: an armed cargo ship from the Navy), so it’s a quite good trap.

For all intents and purposes, the Patino is a small freighter. You're correct, it's not a warship, and its large complement of Marines was likely due to protect the ship from such pirates as it really has no offensive weapons. It's mission was likely to support the real warships operating in the area. I think the pirates got off easy, they should have been tried and then hanged.

Even military replenishment ships are considered a war ship they deliver cargo to places while potentiall getting shot at they have men armed to the teeth all with militarty training theres no civillians on board. And it has guns to shoot at lightly armored vehicles and low flying planes it is by att purposes a warship

Pirates aren't that smart at all ,they thought that was a cargo ship but fortunately it was the oposite ,i think it would be alot better to eliminate pirates uproot ,if the navy and marines change the look of their vessels covering all official displays ,i mean to look like a normal cruiser from outside but realy loaded up inside ,no need to deal with more problems any more ,this is just an idea to erradicate those f...n pirates! that doesn't belong here in this world.

Not really the FINAL boss, it was just a replenishment ship after all, those are basically just cargo ships manned by military men. They could have run into the actual warships these one was trying to replenish. So this is like triggering a late game field boss in the early game, but not really the FINAL boss.
