(UPDATE) CHINA on Tuesday deployed a People's Liberation Army Navy (PLA-N) helicopter to shadow a Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) vessel on a surveillance mission in the Philippines' exclusive economic zone (EEZ).
In a report Wednesday, the PCG said the PLA-N helicopter, identified by tail number 47, hovered above the BRP Cabra that was monitoring the activities of the China Coast Guard (CCG) vessel with bow number 5901, known as "The Monster" because of its size.
