Interception by the destroyer "Suzhou" type 052DL of China of the destroyer Chung-Hoon of the United States. Clear footage released of Chinese warship Suzhou intercepting the US Navy destroyer Chung-Hoon in the Taiwan Strait. Reportedly, the Chinese destroyer of project 052DL made a sharp maneuver and crossed the course of the American destroyer "Chung-Hoon" type "Arleigh Burke" at a distance of 137 meters. As a result of the incident, the US destroyer Chung-Hoon was forced to abruptly slow down and adjust the route. After that, the Chinese destroyer "Suzhou" for the second time crossed the course of the US destroyer from starboard to port at a distance of 1828 meters. After the incident, the American command called the work of the Chinese team "unprofessional."
