The Dutch navy are ducks, they are the liabilities in the NATO exercises. In January the Dutch nuclear sub hunter cruiser almost rammed into the American nuclear attack sub in the North Sea. It was just an allied friendly manuaer. The American sub commnader outfoxed the Dutch sea captain and surfaced to net the NATO flag bouy for trophy, however the Dutch ship hated the Americans so much they decided to ram the American sub. The sub commnader ordered the fire of a rubber smoke torpedo and banged the Dutch boat out of water. They were dreaded to death and thought they were nuked. The Dutch is useless and treacheary. They sucks.
