A rather anonymised FS Céphée (M652), an Éridan-class mine countermeasures vessel operated by the French Navy, passing Greenock on the Firth of Clyde. The vessel is participating in Exercise Sea Breeze 24-1, a multi-national military exercise being held in Scotland. In line with current French military thinking to anonymise its vessels, Céphée has had her pennant number removed, and her name on the port side of the stern painted over.
