Ship seizes anti-tank missiles after chase

THE Royal Navy says it has seized several anti-tank missiles and components for ballistic missiles that were being smuggled in the Gulf of Oman.

HMS Lancaster, whose crew contains Plymouth-based sailors, was involved in the operation which followed a vessel being seen "darting" through international waters.

According to their reports, the capture was made by HMS Lancaster after a 'high-speed chase' which involved a Wildcat helicopter being quickly deployed to track a speedboat cutting through the waves, which reportedly "ignored every radio call" demanding the craft to stop.

The speedboat was soon intercepted whilst attempting to divert into Iranian territorial waters.
