A handful of beached skiffs does not a difficult target make. Navy helo crews have already disabled small numbers of pirate boats while underway with CSW. The problem comes when those numbers start climbing past about a dozen or so, and they are moving fast, and they are close already.
Great job by the crews in the article, too bad they didn't "disable" some pirates along with the skiffs.
