The US Navy has gone from colliding with each other to being snared in foreign fishing nets.

Fishermen set out to catch halibut... and net a US nuclear submarine! 7,800-tonne vessel [USS Virginia] drags fishing crew's net for two miles off Norway

Nah - trawler bait

Hopefully Norway did a catch-n-release though
