 		Yeah, I saw that near the prow as well (Woo! I'm using sailing terminology!)
Any idea how this is related yet? Some sort of advanced Japanese military group making aircraft, or something?

 		Ok someone with language skills. What does the Japanese/Chinese writing on the vests say?

Also, can anyone decipher the sign to the right of the soldiers?

Finally, can anyone translate the purple flag flying behind the Sea Shepherd?

I'm not up to date on the Sea Shepherd, but it does say Steve Irwin on the front.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MV_Steve_Irwin

ETA: The Sea Shepherd eco-pirates have a port in Melbourne, Australia. I'd be willing to bet that the Steve Irwin is the vessel that makes its home there. Also, I believe the Kantsaywhere Institute has a location in Melbourne.

 		Maybe the Japanese are using Whale blubber as UFO exterior?

Edit: Amended so as not to offend some people.

Japanese, I think, would be a better term. Thanks.


Picky much? "Japs" is not racist nor is it offensive to most... It is just short type like "Brits" "Yanks" or "Aussies" But if you are of Asian descent and/or took it as so, then I apologise and it has been amended.

Even if it offends only 1 person on UnForums, isn't that reason enough to think twice about posting it? I am of Korean heritage, not Japanese, but know many Japanese people that would kick my arse if I called them Japs. Oh well, that's just me.

Nope not just you, you're absolutely right. I do see your point and the apology was sincere. I did amend it.

 		Those are too small for grenades... flashbangs? In broad daylight, nowhere near their target?

Is this a "go away or we'll be throwing live grenades next" sorta thing?
