 China’s naval fleet delivers loud message to US
Officials say China's navy will venture more frequently and farther, even into the Atlantic Ocean
by Dave Makichuk February 27, 2020   

PLA officials said during the exercise the fleet crossed through the International Date Line in a combat-ready state. 

It was a move that challenged US hegemony in the Pacific Ocean, and also made clear it would become increasingly frequent in the future — the Chinese navy has arrived, and it isn’t afraid of anyone.

A “battle ready” far sea training fleet of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army (PLA) Navy returned to base after sailing 14,000 nautical miles and boldly crossing the International Date Line deep into the Pacific Ocean for the first time — in other words, a loud knock on the door, in a region where the US claims supremacy, Global Times reported.

According to previous reports, the fleet featured warships including the guided missile destroyer Hohhot, guided missile frigate Xianning, electronic surveillance ship Tianshuxing and replenishment ship Chaganhu.

It would overstate this Chinese "fleet" to compare it to TR's "Great White Fleet".
