This will not work for stopping the pirates. The pirates with the money and power, who have control of the operations, live in NBO, JNB, Canada, and London. Some of them are also white.

Using an aircraft like this will not be practical in a city like London, or NBO.

To stop the pirating, then need to imprison all of the pirates who control the operation, and shut off the money flow into Somalia.

A good start would be to internationally recognize Somaliland, and use it as a base to pacify Somalia, while they imprison all of the pirate heads that are making most of the money.
