If they can hit a bobbing dingy, they can hit a moving truck  or tank.  This is a test case, or a challenge, that stretches skills and technical requirements.

the laser thing on water is a good point and the more I think about it the more the counter measures (from the red side) start to come up.
I was referring more to LGB noting that this is a work up to trucks and tanks.  I was noting that its the other way around.

Exactly.  These boats are smaller, faster, more maneuverable and physics presents other challenges, one of which you noted.  AH-64 brings a lot to this fight as well.

That's a pretty impressive hit, actually... Even with modern PGMs.

I guess the author of that article doesn't understand that pilots need to train? And you might as well give them very difficult targets to train against. Doesn't get a lot harder to hit than a motorized fishing boat with a screaming engine.

For Somali pirates I would use the AC-130. Good range and loiter and lots of ammo. I don't imaging the Somalis have much in the way of anti aircraft weapons.

For Iranian speed boats smaller more manuverable aircraft would seem to be the ticket since you would be in range of Iranian air defenses.
