Sorry if I'm being a noob here, but how do you use Pirate to target a sub? I have to decide where the sub is going before I can add specialists and drillers. I can't target a sub until I add the Pirate, yet I need to decide where to send the sub first, so by the time I can put the Pirate on board, I'll have to be attacking an outpost anyway.

You choose the outpost, then drag it like a normal sub, but instead of going to an outpost, you can lock it onto a sub. After being locked onto the sub, the pirate will automatically be onboard, after which point you can add drillers and specs to how you want them

hence the name of the specialist, the pirate can be used for intercepting gift subs or for throwing the classic queen-killing machine combo (Pirate, Martyr, and Navigator)
I barely use the pirate though, because I find little-to no use to them.

Wait until we play one of our cold war games again and you might reconsider
