Unfortunate Collision at Sea in Turkey

If the image below is the vessel in question (or a sistership), they should have had an unobstructed view astern?

Image below appears to be a larger version of the vessel; possibly an enclosed pilothouse which might explain the lack of situational awareness? Really no excuse for this...

We had 2 Turkish Navy Patrol vessels with us when we had Prince Charles as a guest.

One blew up trying to stay at 17 knots and the other was just bloody dangerous. Not suprised by that situation at all.

No excuse in either side... the cargo should have spotted the CG boat on their bow radar and you d think that they d have someone standing watch at the bow while transiting the Bosphorus. Or at least a camera to cover the area not visible

No excuse for the Russian sailor to be laughing either

Both parties were obviously ignorant and lacking situational awareness.
Crystal clear day, slow speeds, no excuses.
The laughing while the smaller boat went under was also rather disgusting.
