For extra credit, who can identify the ship?

VIKINGS VERSUS PIRATES!!!
With the UN having finally declared pirate season open, the Swedes are sending 2 Goteberg class corvettes (and, presumably a tender) to go a'viking in puntland.
Assuming the ROE are not absolutely retarded, I'm betting on the Vikings.
UPDATE: Galhran ( who has been blogging up a storm lately) beat me to this and has a more in depth analysis. (His commenter's beat me to the obvious as well.

Navy Contemplating Withdrawal
Via Yankee Sailor, the US fleet on station off Myanmar Burma are on the verge of giving up and leaving
as the evil murderous Junta will not allow any save a trickle of aid
through....Anybody the aid might have saved at this point is likely
dead already.
