Thanks, is the TV an official part of her name now or does it just denote Training Vessel which she became from 2005.

The ship is used as a static training vessel by Royal Marines and is no longer an RFA but will still be on the "MOD Books". TV seems a handy abbreviation - it has previously been used for Target vessels. As it is not a merchant vessel it is unlikely to feature in Miramar.
