    The MIC obviously designed the ship to break down at 6 months intervals for "maintenance" (you thought they don't do planned obsolescence for the military?) and the ship is at its eight month at see already (they've been busy bullying Venezuela before being sent to Iran with no break).

    MIC consultant: "Oh, I see your problem..."

    points at place in the vents where a tiny plastic strut that has melted from the fire

    MIC consultant: "That's a super important bit. Holds the whole ship together, that one. We need to replace it at dry dock for $1.000.000.000.000. Else it will snap in half at sea within a week."
