If their Coast Guard is any indication I fully expect them to be a nuisance to everyone in the area.
Simple fix. Start airdropping booze to the Chinese ships.
Their navy hasn't had nearly enough experience with what happens when you give sailors mass quantities of alcohol. Half their fleet will end up at the bottom of the ocean and their prison system and brigs will promptly overflow.
I can say from experience, that the US Navy has mastered the art of wrangling intoxicated sailors to the point of it almost being an exotic art form. (No. Not "erotic" art form. You gotta go to the showers for that after a long period of shore leave.)
What do you do with a drunken sailor?
Put him in a bed with the captains daughter?
I always remember it as throw them in the cabin with the captain's daughter.
China is buying a ton of oil from Iran. It's military escorts the oil tankers.
They have a patrol fleet there, just like other Navies, to ensure freedom of operations. Speculation is that these vessels are meant to takeover the existing patrol fleets duties, but because of the absence of American vessels, due to Israel, the new Chinese vessels will linger longer, or more permanently.
How many highly capable us boats are there
Oh man WWIII is going to make such a good video game
This is the best summary I could come up with:
China's navy has deployed "six highly capable vessels" to the Middle East, a feat that "a lot of countries in the world could not manage," says Bryden Spurling, a researcher with the RAND think tank.
"Though they've never been tested in conflict, these ships have significant capability and reflect the rapid growth in the sophistication of the Chinese Navy," Spurling, a former civil servant with Australia's Department of Defence, told Newsweek in a report published on Wednesday.
On October 7, Hamas launched attacks on Israel by land, air, and sea, killing hundreds of people in Israeli towns, military bases, and at a music festival.
Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said on Saturday that these deployments "further increase our force posture and strengthen our capabilities and ability to respond to a range of contingencies."
Then US Secretary of Defense Mark Esper said at a RAND Corporation event in 2020 that ship numbers do not reflect the US Navy's true capabilities.
"They do not address the types of ships and the capabilities of the vessels being counted; the skill of the crews that operate them; the prowess of the officers that lead them; or the ways in which we fight and sustain them," said Esper.

Wow, 6 ships in the USA's waters? The waters which are owned by the USA?! (I'm doing that thing china does where it claims to own territory it doesn't to highlight their hypocrisy. Fuck china, fuck the ccp)

Either way, probably not PC any more....
