Summary[edit]

Description
English: Gulf of Aden (Dec. 9, 2002) -- Containers found to have scud missile parts in the cargo hold aboard the North Korean vessel, So San, discovered after being boarded by Spanish Special Forces. So San attempted to evade capture, forcing the Spanish Santa Maria-class Frigate Navarra (F-85) to fire warning shots across its bow. Special Forces troops then conducted a hostile boarding by helicopter and small boat. The boarding team later found 15 disassembled Scud missiles concealed by bags of cement, bound for Yemen. U.S. military experts deployed in the area were called in to further examine the cargo. U.S. Intelligence sources had been tracking the vessel since it departed a North Korean port in mid-November. Photo released by Spanish Defense Ministry.
