An unidentified aircraft has the right to fly over international airspace and the ocean (which is also international). The naval vessel (military vessel) has that same right.

The naval vessel could be a transport, fueller, patrol boat, battleship (never can tell), cruiser, destroyer, frigate, tug boat, aircraft carrier, submarine, etc. They are all capable of crossing oceans.

Why would they be there? That would be their business. Same rights and privilege as the aircraft would have in, and over international airspace and waters. Although there would be one important detail to remember when dealing with military/naval commands (ships, tanks, planes, troops, etc.) during the 20th century...never ever approach them un-announced or without proper identification (Friend or Foe)...you don't (or didn't back then) know what mission's it's on! Military/naval commands highly dislike being approached by unknown forces (planes, ships, people, etc.) and will go to general quarters (alert) out of SOP (Standard Operating Procedures); this means they are now armed and ready to deploy weapons on order. The protocol? Keep a safe distance away...the military likes that.

One more note: Lately, there has been some "restricting" of "rights and privileges", in this new 21st century, possibly part of the 9/11/2001. So the aforementioned was true for the 20th century. Today's military/naval forces are also different than they were in the 20th century. Up until the 1990's the US Military/navy could not officially become involved with civilian law enforcement functions without special approval; this was changed during the "base closure days." Today, the US military/navy is a lot closer to being a law enforcement force (like the US Coast Guard) than it was strictly a "military force" during the 20th century. Consequently, a change in the traditional military/naval forces may have also affected a change in the way people travel international airspace and waters.
