+JonathanRL 974 Posted December 22, 2011 Somehow, I doubt South Korea would import Patriot Missiles branded as "Fireworks", taking the long way around... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Typhoid 231 Posted December 22, 2011 This particular export operation is looking like a modern day Ship of Fools. The paperwork was wrong The explosives were improperly stored (and rolling around lose in rough seas!!) The export license wasn't obtained and the ship didn't have the navigational charts for the area they were transiting!! these guys give real smugglers a bad name..... But it does appear to be a legit export of surplus Patriots from Germany to SK. with a stopover in China....... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lexx_Luthor 57 Posted December 29, 2011 I've read "fireworks" was a bad translation of "rockets." A whopper of a nothing-burger I'm thinking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
