Hosted by NATO’s Maritime Command (MARCOM), ‘Dynamic Manta’ is taking place off Sicily between 22 February and 5 March. The French Navy’s Charles de Gaulle CSG is participating as it transits the exercise area during pre-deployment work-up. In so doing, it is bringing the opportunity for participating submarines and surface ships to train with the CSG as a high-value asset (HVA) in a live NATO exercise in a high-profile maritime region.
