I'm gonna irresponsibly wager it was a Japanese ship doing intentional provocation modeled after Australian and American naval games of chicken.

Gonna see if I can find out more tho. Doubt it was Australia but I'd like to know if it was, we've done it before.

Edit: There's PLA drone footage online from the last 24 hours apparently tracking a Japanese Destroyer moving through the taiwan strait. Haven't confirmed its related but I'll take my winnings whenever.
