Wait, what did I just say Russia and China, in the post below?

FOUR Russian warships and three Chinese naval ships including a guided missile cruiser are spotted off the coast of Alaska

A US Coast Guard ship on routine patrol in the Bering Sea came across a guided missile cruiser from China, officials said Monday.

But it turned out the cruiser wasn’t alone as it sailed about 86 miles north of Alaska’s Kiska Island, on September 19.

Two other Chinese naval ships and four Russian naval vessels, including a destroyer, were spotted in single formation, the patrol boat, known as a cutter called Kimball, discovered.

The Honolulu-based Kimball, a 418-foot vessel, observed as the ships broke formation and dispersed.

A C-130 Hercules provided air support for the Kimball from the Coast Guard station in Kodiak.

The US Coast Guard disclosed the sighting on Monday in a press release.
