One of my previous jobs was with a company that did a variety of engineering services. A project they were working (I wasn't involved) was mounting a very high resolution camera (ex-military technology) onto a King-Air ER and using it for surveillance. Some of their most interested potential customers were big insurance companies that hoped to use them to monitor and evade piracy threats.

Paul, I know that you know these things, surely we have the ability to monitor these small boats? Seems that neutralizing a few of these threats would quickly get the point across. Just for the sake of entertainment, can we use a carrier battle group and F-18s?
