"During the 2023 episode over the Virginia Air Force base, Coast Guard personnel boarded a Chinese-flagged frigate off the East Coast under the guise of a routine safety check, according to multiple sources. But they found nothing definitive to link the ship to the drones. "
Does anyone have more information of the US coast guard boarding a Chinese frigate off the east coast, or was this article partially written by AI/hallucinations. I can't seem to find anything about it.

I’d never heard of that site, but CNN also has the same story. https://www.cnn.com/2026/08/31/politics/drone-incursions-us-...

The frigate word is almost certainly a hallucination. A Chinese frigate would not be off the east coast, and the Coasties wouldn’t board it if it was.
