Origin's Official Guide to Wing Commander Prophecy
The Devil Ray has a similar body design as the Manta, but the differences between them are worth noting. Although Mantas and Devil Rays will show up for the same types of missions -- patrols and escorts -- the Devil Ray has about twice the armament. They can be distinguished by Mantas by their yellow coloring and dual vertical tails.
That's not all, however. The Devil Ray is faster, better shielded, has more durable armor and is more maneuverable. As if that weren't enough, they are flown exclusively by aces. These top-notch Alien pilots perform pithc and roll maneuvers, loops and wingovers, just as their Manta counterparts, but do them faster, and are noticeably more difficult to shake off your tail. Defensively, Devil Rays use their decoys against your missiles much more effectively than any other Alien ship.
