Aren’t there some small portable weapons that can deal with such vessels?
Cheers,

It's over 500 feet long, was built by Blohm & Voss who built the Bismarck, and is fitted with a mini submarine for quick escapes, military level radar, missiles, helicopters, and cost a pretty penny. Unfortunately, those pennies appear to have come from a dirty source.
