00:00As part of Freedom of Navigation,

00:03a surveillance flight was conducted by the U.S. Navy

00:07to the West Philippine Sea.

00:09From the air,

00:11the Philippine ships were seen being followed by the Chinese ships.

00:16The American plane was also not saved

00:19in the China's radio challenge.

00:22Chino Gaston was the target.

00:25P-8 Poseidon

00:28The P-8 Poseidon aircraft was launched by the U.S. Navy

00:31along with the media members

00:33in Bajo de Masinloc.

00:35The P-8 Poseidon is a type of military aircraft

00:38that does not have weapons

00:40and its main mission is to gather information

00:42in the sea, land, or ocean.

00:45The P-8 was seen by the U.S. Navy several times

00:48during the resupply mission in Ayungin

00:51and when the Chinese use their war water cannons

00:54against the Philippine Coast Guard and BFAR ships.

00:58From the air,

01:00the U.S. Navy saw and monitored

01:02the ships of the China Coast Guard,

01:04the warships of the Chinese Navy

01:06that followed the ships of the BFAR and the Philippine Coast Guard

01:09in their mission of

01:11delivering crude oil and supplies

01:13to the Philippine fishermen in Bahura.

01:15But because of the classified images and videos

01:17that the aircraft gets,

01:19it is strictly prohibited for the media to capture it.

01:23Whether it's our ships or our aircraft,

01:26it's nearly daily, right?

01:28So, wherever international airspaces

01:32or international waters,

01:34we intend to fly consistently

01:37consistently through those areas

01:39to help support that free and open Indo-Pacific.

01:41While flying near Bajo de Masinloc,

01:44the crew of the P-8 Poseidon

01:46conducted and monitored

01:48the P-8 Poseidon,

01:50which you can see here on our left,

01:52and they used the cameras

01:54and other surveillance equipment

01:56that was brought by the aircraft.

01:58The Chinese Air Force

02:00did a radio challenge several times

02:02to the P-8 Poseidon,

02:04but the U.S. Navy got used to it.

02:06The Chinese Air Force also heard

02:08the radio challenge

02:10to a BFAR aircraft.

02:12So, I would say there's never any apprehensiveness

02:14we go out there and we execute

02:16our mission effectively,

02:18and we do our best to maintain the freedom

02:20and the security of the international waterways

02:22and the airspace.

02:24One of the crew of the airplane,

02:26Ken Garandang, is a Filipino

02:28from Olongapo City.

02:30There are a couple of Chinese military ships

02:32out there, some Chinese Coast Guard ships

02:34out there, and then obviously

02:36you see some of the Filipino

02:38ships out there as well.

02:40We're right off the coast of Scarborough Shoal.

02:42Aside from radar and camera,

02:44the airplane also has the ability

02:46to drop sonar buoy

02:48to detect submarines

02:50under the sea.

02:52For GMA Integrated News,

02:54Chinugaston, Katutok, 24 hours.
