The Navy is looking to rebound from its latest shipbuilding SNAFU by basing the design of its new frigate on a Coast Guard cutter.

The US Coast Guard announced Friday night it has suspended its search for people in the water after US strikes on alleged drug boats in the eastern Pacific Ocean earlier this week.

The effort, which lasted four days, is the most extensive one conducted by the U.S. since it began attacks on alleged drug ships in September.

Russia has deployed a submarine and other warships to protect an empty oil tanker that is attempting to evade the US Coast Guard in the Atlantic Ocean.

The U.S. Coast Guard recently began a mission to keep commercial ships cruising on southern Lake Huron despite winter hazards. On Friday, Coast Guard Sector Detroit commenced Operation Coal Shovel to prevent newly formed ice from hindering commercial vessel traffic.

The woman was a passenger on the Nieuw Statendam cruise ship, which was roughly 40 miles northeast of Sabana, Cuba, when she went overboard, the Coast Guard said.

Russia standoff was unfolding in the Atlantic after Russia sent naval assets to the aid of a tanker being pursued by the U.S. forces.

The U.S. military says U.S. forces have boarded another oil tanker in the Caribbean Sea as the Trump administration continues to target sanctioned tankers traveling to and from Venezuela
