Earlier this month, a U.S. Navy warship trolled the Chinese navy’s first aircraft carrier battle group, following and filming it from only a short distance away.
The U.S. Navy took video the Chinese People’s Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) aircraft carrier Liaoning and its accompanying battle group and the video made the rounds on social media, even appearing on China’s Twitter alternative, Weibo.
“#Chinese #carrier LIAONING 16 and task group reportedly as seen from a US #Navy ship,” naval warfare journalist Chris Cavas tweeted.
Commander Robert Briggs, the commanding officer of the U.S. Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyer USS Mustin (DDG-89) also posed for a photo with his feet kicked up, watching the Chinese aircraft carrier from a short distance away.

Military tensions continue to rise near Taiwan as warships from both the U.S. Navy and the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) People’s Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) congregated off Taiwan’s southwestern coast.
On April 4, both countries’ aircraft carriers, the nuclear-powered USS Theodore Roosevelt, and the steam-powered Liaoning were both sighted chaperoned by escort ships.
