No offence to posters above,,,
Look at the shape of the impact. From port aft quarter,,which means the tanker came from there and was
by that the overtaker and therefore the give-way-vessel.
Why a Navy vessel however can not avoid things like that as she has power at moments notice from their
engines and could maneuver "rather" quick,,that is for me a riddle.
btw,, do you guys really thing that the Chinese or UK or AUS or whatever Navy do not think that they own the oceans,,, if so,,then you never been with a Navy ship of any nation on a VHF and talking with them !!!
