In regards to that lumpy Enigma, the Germans didnt totally change codebooks during the lumpy thing's operational life? How it scrambles messages is awesome tho.
Ah, but the Japanese itself is literally tatamize. (畳 (tatami) + 化 (make into)). Tatamification makes it sound much more like someone turning into an actual tatami mat, so tatamize it is! (And tatamiize has a double I, so that's a bit iffy)
Because she failed to detect a naturalized U-boat who still has her German ciphers memorized and who used them to send an Enigma encoded message identifying herself by her old name.
That's a 3 rotor army enigma, no? Afaik the Kriegsmarine only used the 4 rotor version.
The Kriegsmarine originally used the 3-rotor (picked from 5 in total), but they moved to the 4-rotor model in 1942; U-511 was launched in 1941, so she would have come with the 3-rotor installed, though she might well have had the 4-rotor installed before steaming off to Japan.
Advanced Information WarfareWoah, this takes me back!I've still even got the codebook, yeah!In...Inconceivable...Waaait, how the hell do you have an Enigma!?Set the scrambler and plugboard and...It's because she's been completely Tatamized, that's all.POINT!Enigma.
A powerful cipher machine utilised by Nazi Germany.If true, it would bring disgrace upon the name of the world-famous MI-6!It's just you wallowing in disbelief, no?No,We searched so hard and didn't find anything - but to have one under our noses this whole time!?If she was a real U-boat, then she should know how to use this!!A British-made perfect replica!No, I just can't believe it!Such a perfect disguise that it fooled our glorious British intelligence agencies...Don't worry about it.*click clack*"Honjitsu wa Seiten Nari. HQ von U-511"
The Japanese set phrase for mic testing. Lit. "Today is a sunny day"; the German is "U-511 to HQ".
