There is just something so wrong about this. One of the most advanced vessels in the Navy gets taken out by a rogue merchant ship? I salied on an ancient diesel submarine into San FRancisco bay at 2am, dodging merchant ships left and right, calculating courses, speeds etc and could tell a 0 bearing rate contact was a bad thing (it is either real far away or real close coming at you) these guys should have seen the hard turn from the track and gotten real suspicious real fast. There is a lot here that is either not reported, or not to be told. Merchant ships do not turn almost 180 degrees from their intended port, and then "accidentally" run into you.
