It has never been done...............Oh yes it has. The Barbary pirates did it quite successfully , flotillas of small maneuverable hos against ships of the line, and they won.

Sir Francis Drake employed similar strategies against much larger Spanish vessels.

A flotilla of small boats can indeed sucessfully take down a larger one.The Iranians know this to be fact. And if they have torpedoes to disable a large ship and firepower to rake the decks of a larger ship, all they have to have is the balls to board, and its over.

With the weak kneed ROE the Obama Junta has with the USN at this time, a large US vessel could be taken by a flotilla of smaller craft.

The only way to beat a flotilla of small craft is through superior firepower delivered early and lethally. and Obama doesn't want that. He believes in soft diplomacy of a non gun boat nature. We all see where that has gotten him with China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea. They all play Obama like a banjo.

Interesting thought though... Phased array radar. Lots of the cruisers and destroyers over there have it. Suppose you jack it to max power, like you're trying to burn-through some jamming. But you steer the beam onto a surface target. Now, that target may still be several miles away, well out of weapons range. But that is danger close for a radar capable of tracking things in orbit. Every metal fitting on the surface target would light up with hundreds, maybe thousands of volts of induced potential... People on the craft would be electrocuted if they touched anything...

obama would never have the guts to authorize use of the systems in this way. His ROE will no-doubt let them get close enough to fire RPGs into the bridge.

abu still getting even with Special Forces? This man is a menace to the “free” world and other living things.

Did you notice they “ungrayed” his hair again?
