Well, fighting pirates was the original mission that established the United States Marine Corps.

Its nice to know that we have the accuracy and capability to hit fast moving targets on land or water. From more then one platform style.

That is the problem with posting from Blogs. Besides the blogger’s title, no statement by the Air Force in the article says they are going to be used against pirates. It could just as easily be Iranian fast craft swarming a warship in the Persian Gulf.
