'''Description''': The Manta is the Alien heavy fighter. It is much less maneuverable than the Moray, but is capable of withstanding more hits, and delivering more damage.

Mantas rarely travel alone. They seek out the heart of any dustup, and when they get there the enemy pays attention. Each Manta is equipped with both guns and missiles, and heavy armor on all sides. The weaponry is formidable, and a lock successfully maintained by one of these fighters usually results in fireworks. The best defensive maneuvers against them are usually right turns in a more nimble ship, and teamwork in slower ones.

It is important to note that the least shielded area on a Manta is the aft quarter, making the tail the best target for any more maneuverable ship.

Because the Manta has extra power diverted to its shields, it is somewhat less nible than it could be, but Manta pilots have learned to compensate by employing maneuvers that are not so much "light" as "strategic." Be prepared for a Manta to exhibit pitch and roll maneuvers, loops and wingovers.

Beware of red Mantas -- these carry a bomber loadout (described below) and they do present a threat to a capital ship.
