Operating in the straights of Hormuz during the second Gulf War, an Attland SSN detected an Iranian Kilo-class SSK rigging into an aggressive posture, having opened torpedo tubes to the sea and assuming the minimal cross-section posture. Upon receiving data of the enemy sub's imminent aggressive moves, the SSN launched her weapons, sinking the SSK.
I remember the reaction of the foreign media that seemed to side with the Iranians, tsince by then, Attland was perceived as boasting a brutal and aggressive military.
This was the frist indication in the media that the SSN was manned mostly by Maarheinigt.
