Description

Two men from the New Zealand Navy row a dinghy with a pop gun as a weapon near Somalia. One of them reads a newspaper with a headline 'UN asks NZ to send warship on pirate hunt' and the other hopes that the 'pirates don't outgun us'. Context; New Zealand had been asked several times in the past by the UN to supply a warship for piracy patrols but did not have a craft available. However, it is understood that the delivery of seven new ships under the Project Protector fleet had freed up the navy's two combat ships, the Anzac frigates, HMNZS Te Kaha and HMNZS Te Mana, to do more operational missions. A New Zealand navy warship may be deployed to hunt down pirates, possibly off the coast of Africa.
