But why stop here. We have satellites, AWACS and all that other secret spy stuff at our disposal - so why not use it for more practice.
1 pirate mother ship.
1 US Navy attack submarine
1 torpedo.
Practice.
1 pirate strong hold.
1 Arleigh Burke class destroyer.
1 Tomahawk Block IV cruise missile.
Practice
1 pirate speed boat.
1 Navy/Marine AH-1 SuperCobra
1 AGM-114 Hellfire
Practice
The list could go on.
And before I forget - kudos to France also for jumping in and kicking some butt themselves.
