Comment on Naval Vessels, Shadowy by Intent, Are Hard for Commercial Ships to Spot

Comments

Could it be possible there was hostile action aboard the US Navy vessel? There may have been a (possibly classified) incident in progress at the time of the collision. If there were truly no confounding factors... this should be massively embarrassing and _at_least_ career-ending for those who failed to act while on watch.

A screw-up seems a lot more likely.

The Navy just punished another crew for running a destroyer into a cargo ship. I'd imagine we'll see a similar response here.
