Provocatively? Did it launch aircraft and threaten to rain destruction from the sky? If not it didn’t act provocatively at all, it more likely behaved just like the ineffective, red line drawing, muslim appeasing eunuch that resides in our White House.

The CVN’s skipper probably began launching helo’s to pick the crew up from the disabled boat. I would guess that if they didn’t have a tanker on station that they launched one of those and a couple of fighters to cover the rescue as well.

But this is just like a “man overboard drill”. A task force would just react automatically to the situation.
