Hmmmm, i hope there arent any munition "accidents". I mean, could you imagine if a torpedo was "accidentally" fired from a submarine that happened to be in the area?

Wouldnt that be a bummer...

(Thatsssssssssssss a niceeeeeeeee fleet you got there. itd be a shhhhhhhhhhhame if something were to happen to it )

The US should send a a small zodiak into the fleet, ''armed'' with anoying polka music and make it zigzag between the ships

Just for the fun of it

Surely the USN has some subs somewhere in the region that are going to monitor it and report back to command on their movements and force disposition. Good chance to gather some intel on the Chinese fleet

Given how often things seem to explode in China, I'd say a munitions accident on one of the PLAN ships is not an impossibility...
