The Russian-owned ship M/V Chariot (IMO 8302882) has been in the news recently for taking arms and ammunition to Syria in January 2012 and again for visiting Iran in March. She's also been reported as taking weapons from post-revolutionary Egypt to the Democratic Republic of the Congo. I took some photos of her when she visited the Liverpool area in September 2011.
