By Lucas Tomlinson | Fox News

A Chinese spy ship is lurking off the coast of Hawaii during the largest international maritime exercise known as RIMPAC (Rim of the Pacific), U.S. officials tell Fox News.

It's not immediately clear where the Chinese vessel is located, but officials say it's in international waters (more than 12 nautical miles away), and not impacting the exercises.

According to the Navy,  “26 nations, 47 surface ships, five submarines, 18 national land forces and more than 200 aircraft and 25,000 personnel will participate in the biennial Rim of the Pacific (RIMPAC) exercise scheduled June 27 to Aug. 2, in and around the Hawaiian Islands and Southern California.”
