报道称,12月5日,美国海军提康德罗加级导弹巡洋舰考本斯号,在南海海域监视中国海军辽宁舰航母时,与中国一艘战舰两栖战舰“迎面遭遇”,美舰采取紧急机动规避了两舰相撞。报道还提到,美国国务院官员说,美国政府通过外交和军事渠道向中国提出了抗议。

A report from December 5 is saying, U.S. navy ship "Cowpens" [i.e. CG-63], a cruiser belonging to the Ticonderoga-class, had the opportunity to keep watch on China's navy ship [the aircraft carrier] Liaoning in the maritime region of the South [China] Sea. When a Chinese ship for amphibious warfare "headed on to run up against" it, the U.S. ship applied emergency power to avoid mutual collision. The report is quoting as well an official from the U.S. State Department as saying the U.S. government has lodged a protest with China by means of diplomatic and military channels.
