Good for India. Someone needs to let these Somolian pirates know that if they want to play with guns they are going to get killed.

well done :D this is what all navies should do- bring the fight to the pirates- bomb the ports, stop them from launching, if the world forces were keen, they'd just carpet bomb the coast

good job,but I think using a large naval ship to deal with pirates are no so effective they can only passively defence. My plan is to use a decoy ship with armored personel on board and a sub go after it. when a ship is confirmed pirate and try to jack the decoy ship, the sub will sunk their mothership and the decoy will take care of the rest.
