The problems lie in the eye of the beholder, i.e. naval officers who just see jobs and ships not being operated by blue suits. AND by naval lawyers who are ALL hung up on civilian crewed ships somehow being engaged in possible offensive missions.<br />IMHO ALL naval vessels it can be assumed will be in offensive actions at some point in their service. the only question is how much self-defense equipment should go on them to be crewed by sailors vice mariners.leeseahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18420319144673744218noreply@blogger.com
