US Navy Captures Illegal Weapons Heading To Yemen
 

The guided missile cruiser USS Monterey, part of the US 5th Fleet seized a haul of illegal weapons that where heading to Yemen. The weapons included RPG's, Chinese Type 56 Assault Rifles, PKM Machine Guns and Sniper Rifles among others. The haul when laid out covers a large portion of the Monterey's (what I think is) aft deck.

Yikes, somebody is losing out in that deal. I wonder if anyone will complain and want their money back. NOT. :)


Well, I suppose we'll just wrap them up for resale to our own freedom fighters.

This thread and it's comments made me remember what an agent for DEA said in a documentary on Drugs.

(From memory)
It's only the top of the iceberg we catch.

Maybe it's the same here-This catch was only the top of the iceberg.

That's not that many weapons ... you couldn't even take over one city in LA with that many weapons. :o

Remember what a big country Yemen is and what a big country Saudi Araba is that they are fighting :yep:

Well that's only what came off of one ship. How many ships loaded with similar weapons and similar amounts have slipped past the Navy and made it to Yemen already? Like Markus said this is probably only the tip of the iceberg, it's the part of the iceberg you can't see that's the most dangerous.

They're not "illegal", they're just undocumented. :D

Wouldn't that make them "ghost guns"?

damn they ship them to the wrong place again suppose to go to the subsim hidden warehouse

Would be interesting to see a picture of those that have gotten through.

Satellite? You want satellite intel, uh? :D

The real point being.....were the goods insured? :)

Rumor has it that these were destined for the upcoming Virginia Gun show. :D

I wonder which white supremacist in Yemen these were headed to? :D

Gives a bit better picture as to just how many weapons there are.
