BMP5 and onboard drills for high-risk areas.

Anti-piracy training prepares crews to deter and survive attacks in high-risk areas, built on the industry Best Management Practices, currently BMP5, and onboard hardening, citadel, and drill procedures. The training covers route planning around risk areas, watch enhancement, and the use of registered private maritime security. The Joint War Committee and flag-state circulars define the high-risk and listed areas that trigger these measures.
