Earlier today, two Venezuelan F-16s armed with air-to-surface missiles conducted a low-altitude flyover of the USS Jason Dunham (DDG-109) in the southern Caribbean Sea, in what was described as a “show of force” against the U.S. Navy. The Jason Dunham is one of several Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyers deployed to the region, carrying out counter-cartel and counter-narcotics operations off Venezuela’s coast.
