I remember as a kid, my father telling me that naval vessels had been threatened in the past by large factory ships - I'm pretty sure he said they were Russian/Soviet.
Now he's a civvy, so I'm guessing this would have been reported via the media or the like.
Does anyone have information on whether this actually happened and what consequences if any there were?
I've read the stories on these pages about vessels that didn't stop/acted threateningly, and had everything but the kitchen sink thrown at them in response so maybe this is where it comes from.
Any info would be very welcome.
Cheers.
