Somali Pirates vs. US Navy. Somali Pirates Attack Wrong Ship delves into the perilous world of piracy off the coast of Somalia, where desperation drives men to the high seas, targeting ships for ransom. This documentary explores a fascinating scenario: what happens when Somali pirates, armed with rudimentary weapons, mistakenly confront a US Navy submarine? Through expert interviews, archival footage, and dramatic reconstructions, we uncover the origins of Somali piracy, tracing back to the aftermath of Somalia's 1991 collapse. As foreign vessels decimated local fish stocks, fishermen turned pirates, evolving from defenders of their waters into formidable adversaries on the open sea.
The film examines the audacious nature of these pirates, daring to challenge not just commercial vessels but military might, including the formidable presence of US navy ships. Through the lens of a hypothetical confrontation between a ragtag pirate skiff and a technologically superior US Navy submarine, we explore the potential outcomes of such an illfated encounter. The documentary further delves into the broader implications of piracy and naval defense strategies, highlighting the unlikely yet intriguing possibility of a clash with a narco sub—a semisubmersible used for smuggling drugs. #usnavy #submarine #pirates
