The Stryker at Sea

This is the CB90-the Navy's new Riverine Command Boat. From Navy Times:

If the Stryker armored combat vehicle were a boat, it might be the
CB90, a Swedish-designed shallow-water vessel that’s fast, lethal and flexible
enough to be an ambulance or a fast-attack craft.
The Navy has decided to buy
two of the boats, now known in certain Navy circles as the Riverine Command
Boat, for use by the newest incarnation of the brown-water navy, Navy
Expeditionary Combat Command’s riverine group.
Already in use with navies
around the world, the CB90 originally was a product of the Swedish boatmaker
Dockstavarvet. SAFE Boats, based in Washington state, bought the licenses
required to build the same boat for the Navy. There are more than 240 in use
around the world, from Malaysia to Greece.

This is awesome, and here's a video. I'd say about 200, or probably the price of our new missile destroyer, would be sufficient to eliminate terrorist pirates in shallow seas around the world!
