Few extra notes: Bingo is a level of poundage of fuel calculated and set by the pilot before the mission and changes based upon many factors, mostly the distance between the target area and runway. For example you set your bingo at 2,000 lbs. once you have less than 2,000 lbs of fuel in your tank(s) you’ll get blaring in your ears telling you “bingo”. Bingo is the minimum amount of fuel required to return to base with a little extra for safety. When you hit bingo you need to disengage and bug out to home plate. There’s another higher point, Joker, which is used to let the pilot know that they need to finish up their engagement and not take a new one. While you don’t often fire upon bogeys no matter how much Hollywood tries to convince us, there are certain cases, called outlaw, where a bogey becomes a valid target under specific ROE, usually a combination of point-of-origin (where the aircraft took off from, entered picture from) and aircraft type. This is quite rare but there is a brevity code for it should the need arise. An important brevity code to know in complex modern aircraft is bent, meaning inoperative or broken. Hard bent means it’s really fucked and not going to fixed until you’re in the garage apologizing to maint with a couple six packs. Also, the Russians don’t have an official brevity code system like US/NATO, opting for loosely standardized long form, but individual units may have slang that functions similarly.

Joker is typically 15-30 min to bingo depending on fuel usage. Bent is most often used for Radar issues, as well as midnight and sunrise. Timber sweet/sour is for link issues.

pilots give each other call signs not as compliments but as insults. so a pilot with a call sign of “killer” is a danger to the team likely due to a near-fatal friendly fire incident and “maverick” is an air to ground missile meaning a bad pilot that is likely to crash.

I knew most of these, but not that initial set of identifiers. Fast mover is obviously a jet, but I thought bogey and bandit were somewhat interchangeable, never thought to look those up. Never gonna use this knowledge for anything except watching old movies and talking to myself in War Thunder, but I love it anyway! EDIT: Oh, I also didn't know about the air-to-surface codes. I remember in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, a couple F-15s launch some HARMs at a target and say "Fox-3" and I was always wondering why they were using an air-to-air code.

When set for a small target (generally fighter sized) it would go active at 7 nautical miles, for a medium sized target (think a smaller transport aircraft or a larger attack aircraft) it was 10 nautical miles, and for a large aircraft (something like a big bomber) it was 13 nautical miles.

@@oceanforth21 what do you mean by post acquirance? Like the missile can acquire a new lock after its lost its original, or do you mean that it acquires a lock after launch? If you mean the former, then you're wrong. Maddog mean that the missile is immediately actively searching for a target and locking onto the first thing it sees. The reason its called maddog is because pilots and the people who came up with the mode compared it to releasing a mad dog and just letting it chase the first thing it sees. It just goes and tries to attack the first thing it sees and it can only be affected by pointing it in a certain direction. If you mean the latter, you're kind of right. any missile being launched maddog has to lock on post launch because it cant have its radar on and transmitting while its still in a position where it could acquire on the aircraft that launched it or irradiate the crew of the aircraft that launched it with its radar emissions. So to avoid those things the missiles radar is only activated once it is under thrust and it has traveled a short distance. this also solves the problem of the missile needing to have a clear line of sight on its target to acquire a lock, which things like the MAK-79 aerodynamic fairings in the case of the phoenix, the fuselage of the aircraft itself for the AMRAAM, or other weapons infront of the missile for both of them can cause. But besides technicalities, Maddog = missile active straight off the mothership aircraft and not being controlled by said aircraft possibly besides an initial angle to look down, and pitbull = the missile going active after being guided in on a target by its mothership aircraft.

F-14 flexing: AIM-54 can receive initial guidance information from another linked F-14 or the awacs through the launching F-14's datalink.

Fox-1: Semi-active radar guided missile that uses the aircraft's onboard radar to see the target meaning you have to keep the lock on enemy aircraft to hit 'em. Example: AIM-7 Sparrow range: max 43 miles. Fox-2 : Passive self guided IR homing missile that tracks the IR signature of the enemy aircraft. Example: AIM-9X Sidewinder range: 22 miles Fox-3 : Active radar homing missile the missile has onboard radar meaning you can lose the lock and still hit the target as the missile still has lock with its own radar. Example : AIM-120 AMRAAM range: 50 miles

Also, for at least the AMRAAM, you don't actually need a hard lock in the first place. There's a radar mode that will just scan a smaller area of the sky, and that still sees the enemy aircraft often enough to update guidance to the AMRAAM. It wouldn't work for a sparrow, but only seeing something every 2 seconds lets an AMRAAM know where to look with the seeker, and it can just guide itself in from there on out.

Angels should only be used for friendly contacts. A typical call from AWACS (Magic callsign used below) giving a PICTURE might be something like this: "Magic, Three group Ladder, 15 deep. Lead group Bullseye 320 - 20 - 32000, track south, three contacts, swept North West, Hostile. Middle group 16000, two contacts line abreast, Hostile. Trail group 4000, single contact, bogey." So the picture here is that there are three distinct groups in 15 mile long trail (a ladder) heading in the same direction. Lead group is given an anchor with the bullseye format and the middle and trail groups are in relation to the lead group. The first (lead) group has three enemy (Hostile) aircraft flying in an echelon NW formation (swept) within 3NM of each other and their altitude is 32000ft. The second (middle) group is a pair of enemy aircraft (Hostile) in a line abreast formation (side by side within 3NM) at 16000ft and they are Hostile. The third group (trail) is a single unidentified aircraft flying at 4000ft.

@@ITZHA5H So in SC, there is atmospheric flying so BRAA pretty much works the same there. In space we usually want to set a bullseye and altitude will often become either an angle of attack (roughly given) or just a general above, at, or below based off of the "solar plane" (the general plane at which the planets in the solar system orbit). If you're above the solar plane, then you say either "above" or "high" and if you're below it then it's "below" or "low" and if you're pretty much level with the star then it's just "at." It isn't perfect but it works for the most part. Unfortunately in SC they haven't implemented any kind of AWACS type ships yet (there are plans for ships with larger radar dishes that can spot enemies at much greater distances/scan for stealth ships etc but it has not been implemented yet so we gotta work with what we have.

Angels is friendlies only. Bearing is NOT given in ten degree increments only. BEAMING is perpendicular. Flanking is when they're between perpendicular and headed towards you (30-60 degrees) Cease Fire means to not fire anything else. Any missiles currently tracking may continue to do so, but regardless of whether you're "done" with the engagement, you can't shoot again. (This wasn't necessarily incorrect in the video, but it was, in my opinion, unclear). Bullseye isn't supposed to be shortened to Bull.

Angels isn't just friendlies - hell, you can hear Angels callouts from the F-14 pilots in the example clip, which where VF-41 pilots going up against Libyan MiG's in '89 (keep in mind while they still used "Bogeys", they could pretty much guarantee those were Libyan fighters as soon as they detected them). You can also find examples of the same thing happening in the Persian Gulf in '91. As for everything else, keep in mind this is all GENERAL stuff, so bearings are IN GENERAL rounded to the 10 degrees, Bullseye IN GENERAL can be shortened to bull or bulls (again, the example is from a real combat mission flown by F-16 pilots in Serbia), and flanking is IN GENERAL a side-aspect (more so with older radars where exact direction was difficult to tell, and it applies more when IN combat, given that flanking can also be an attempt to notch your radar, or defend against your missiles, etcetera)

Good video! But "nails" does not mean the enemy has detected you, it simply means that your RWR has picked up a radar signal. Remember that if you get hit by a radar signal it does not mean that that same signal wil make it all the way back to the sender. you can detect incoming radar signals from way further than the radar signal can give an accurate return. Also, "mud" doesn't mean you have been locked or detected yet. for pretty much the same reason. "Nails" and "Mud" are just codes for when the RWR detects any incoming radar beams in search mode. If you call out "Spike" or "Mudspike" that means the radar is now tracking you and could potentially fire missiles at you.

Electro-optical air to ground missiles or SAMs are relatively widespread, but neither AGM’s nor SAMs are defined by guidance type (outside anti-radiation missiles having the Magnum callout). One interesting thing would be laser guided AAM’s, I’m not sure if they’ve ever had a brevity callout since the US never used them as far as I’m aware.

@@Ranger1741 EVE Online, there you go. Because I'm not just talking about jargon any more than OP. I'm talking about brevity. Although, yes, I dind't quite realize it, but a lot of raid jargon CAN work as brevity codes, we have sort of an organic tradition rather than a curated system.

If I may translate: incoming jet bearing 210 at 10,000 ft range 413 mi at an angle between 30-60° you are authorized to engage the enemy. Received transmission radar detected 2 enemy aircraft at an angle of 30-60° around 10 mi launching semi-active missiles.

Can you explain the part that of the BRAA where he says “for thirteen”. What does that mean? I get the rest of the transmission but this part has me stumped because he never explains it. Or if he did I missed it. Thanks in advance for the assist.

@@jackdeth37 I believe it just means 13 nautical miles. It's definitely NOT 413 though. No AA missile can travel this far, just like no fighter radar has such enormous spotting range.

@@jackdeth37 the "for 1-3" is something in his comms to clean up. It should specifically be "BRAA 210, 13, 10,000, Flanks" and with the flanks, a cardinal could be given eg 'Flanks south' which eliminates the possibility of it flanking north. Instead of an aspect, a "tracks direction" could also be given, eg "BRAA 210, 13, 10,000, tracks south."

Just a clarification. The Skyflash missile is no longer in-service with the RAF. It was last deployed on the Tornado F3 which went out of service in 2011. The Eurofighter Typhoon Captor radar is not equipped with an Illuminator Transmitter. The original development model had an Illuminator option to support the Italian aircraft which was to use the Aspide semi-active missile (an Italian Sparrow), but this option was withdrawn. I was the Programme Manager for the Skyflash missile trials at Naval Air Station Point Mugu. The missile was so accurate we took out 4 QF4 Phantom drones, much to the displeasure of the USN. I was also part of the Euroradar management team for the Captor radar (previously known as ECR 90).

Because the Vid was previously uploaded on Koala's Channel before armor cast existed. And because that vid previously existed on koala's channel, I guess he decided to re-upload it on this channel, while also changing a few things in the script. I only wish youtube had tools like this where you could transfer a vid from one of your own channel to another one that you own

I absolutely love this. I went from understanding maybe every third word/term to being able to decipher the code phrases at the start in one viewthrough. :D AWACS: Jets (fast movers) inbound, bearing 210 (from AWACS perspective), distance 13 km, altitude 10,000 feet, travelling perpendicular to your (Koala's) heading. You are cleared to engage the targets (cleared hot). Koala 1-1: Roger, I have visual on 2 confirmed enemies (bandits), travelling perpendicular to flank. Launching SARH missile (AWACS guided). (Twice? This is the only part I didn't quite get. If they call out FOX multiple times, is that just for clarity, or can it actually mean they launch multiple missiles of the same type at once, or back to back?)

In this case, calling 'Fox 1' twice IS just for clarity. If you were launching multiple sidewinders for example, you might say "Fox 2, ripple" (kinda unnecessary), but you can't ripple fire SARH missiles anyway
