China Headlines: U.S. ship patrolling in South China Sea counterproductive - Xinhua | English.news.cn
Subi reef is submerged at high tide so it is not entitled to a 12 nm territorial sea. Tracking with navy ships and aircraft was enough to drive them away. Now the US navy is getting ready to send their navy to islands and rocks in the South China Sea. PLAN and PLAAF have forward deployed.
Xinhua already declared: it's time for ramming!
Looks like the conventional sets of actions have been taken in confrontation the US breach of China's sovereign waters.
If the US steps up the ante, so will China.
But give some months until the next US stunt.
