US navy "shadowing" Russian flotilla off Florida coast—satellite data

U.S. naval and air assets appear to be shadowing Russian warships that passed Florida's eastern coast on their way to make port in Cuba, open source maritime and aerial tracking data has revealed.

Open-source intelligence (OSINT) analysts on Tuesday posted updates showing the CG Stone coastguard vessel, the USS Truxtun and USS Donald Cook destroyers, and the Royal Canadian Navy frigate HMCS Ville de Quebec travelling southwards down the Florida coast, purportedly following the Russian ships headed to Cuba. Above them, at least one U.S. Navy P-8A Poseidon and Canadian CP-140 Aurora appeared to be conducting surveillance.
