There was a fun scenario someone made a while ago called CAPER FOCUS that I enjoyed. The goal was basically to catch the narco-terrorists running around in go-fasts off the coast of Columbia.
Since small arms don't do anything to surface vessels in DW, these sorts of scenarios are usually all about the hunt rather than the fight. Small arms
do damage helocopters, though. Right now, in fact, MH-60s armed with heavy machine guns and hellfires ply the smuggling routes of the Persian Gulf and Gulf of Oman, looking for arms smugglers and pirates. The waters near the coast of Oman in particular are shallow, choked with coral, and poorly surveyed making them off limits to FFGs and DDGs. There was an article in
Naval Aviation about that a few months ago.
