Bloomin heck!
Can we please keep this non-political!
There was no call for that.

"Noble manta" - that means something like "edler Manta" or "großzügiger Teufelsrochen" in German. What wannabe-poet is figuring out such an operation code-name?

All anti sub execrice in Med are designed by Manta, then you can add the prefix they want: virgin, drunk, idot, , etc....

For informations there is also an exercice in Scotland (22april-8may), the only female member of the DW team at MS is going here to sink subs with the crew of here Atlantique 2 antisubmarine plane.
