From the Philippine Star (Aug 12): WATCH: Ship that swiftly sailed past Chinese patrols to reach Philippines
"It’s a very fast ship. First we just saw a dot but moments later it was already docking without asking for assistance from tugboats," said a port worker about the USNS Millinocket, a Spearhead-class joint high speed vessel of the US military, at Poro Point in La Union.
The most modern naval vessel of the United States military apparently sailed past the watchful eye of Chinese ships patrolling wide areas of the South China and West Philippine seas to dock smoothly here on Aug. 6, 2015.
