They are doing the Chinese secret keeping thing now? Bummer.
No. Because that twitter account and everything else you know about that person is now tied to him/her being deployed on that warship. OpSec is completely gone at that point. He's probably in deep shit right now.
And tbf, the fact he's Chinese will bring in more suspicion upon himself. He shouldn't have posted anything.
Yeah there's a reason I don't post anything about me specifically. I already get enough shit for being Chinese, I don't need to add "doesn't hate China" to the suspicion.
The JS Suzutsuki probably stayed in the East Philippine Sea for exercises with the USN there. If the picture is in the South China Seas --- West Philippine Sea as the Filipinos want to call it --- then what you see there is the JS Akebono. The JS Akebono has been touring the SCS for about a month visiting different countries and holding drills. It is likely to be the ship in the most convenient spot to check up on the Liaoning CSG. As the Liaoning CSG breaks off to the Spratleys, the JS Akebono will head to Vietnam for a visit there.
Around that same waters is where this guy posted saying CV-16 is being shadowed by 3 US Burke destroyers. I don't how credible he is and how sharp his eyes are. And I don't think US would have 3 Burke destroyers to spare on 1 Chinese aircraft carrier (in waters near China) when the most they can escort their carriers with are usually 2 or 1 sometimes.
