warship

The government has sent three warships carrying aid and two hospital ships to some of the worst-hit areas, where many roads remain impassable.

At least two cities on Indonesia's worst-affected Sumatra island were still unreachable on Sunday, and authorities said they had deployed two warships from Jakarta to deliver aid.

The U.S.’s most advanced aircraft carrier is in the region, along with a flotilla of warships and a force of Marines.

Navy plans to cancel orders for four new warships after the government’s extensive design modifications set back construction by years.

“If it involves the use of warships and the exercise of force, I believe this is a case that could unquestionably constitute a crisis threatening the nation’s existence,” Takaichi said.
