I am not the fanboy of The Nameless, but in theory a big ship has a lot of place to install antidrone weapons on it. Maybe it will be big enough to make an umbrella for the rest of a task force (warships nowadays would rather not travel alone). In practice, this theory may be put to a test, of course. -- Regards, Tomasz Rola -- ** A C programmer asked whether computer had Buddha's nature. ** ** As the answer, master did "rm -rif" on the programmer's home ** ** directory.
