promitheas Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 (edited) First of all, I'd like to say hello to everyone, this is my first post on theses forums! Second of all, while watching all the youtubers who play DCS I always wonder what they are saying, so I made this thread so that people can write what all the military pilot lingo means. For example, what is Fox 1, 2, and 3? Cheers :pilotfly: Edited December 7, 2015 by promitheas [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] "Dogfights are not numbers it's a dance"
Ultra Posted December 6, 2015 Posted December 6, 2015 Welcome! Not to burst your bubble or anything, but there is a Wikipedia page that has a lot of them. :D https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiservice_tactical_brevity_code Although it would be nice to see some people post some other lingo that may be more unofficial, like slang.
Lucas_From_Hell Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 Some language of the skies for you :music_whistling: The most important phrase you can ever use or hear in aviation is "son of a b****!" Your left engine starts acting up? SOB! An enemy fighter sneaks up behind you without you seeing? SOB. Can't find that darn wingman of yours, or your flight leader lit the AB and left you trailing? SOB, too! Got an enemy tank in your sights and are getting ready to shoot it? Kill the SOB. You get the idea. :D All jokes aside, that Wikipedia link Ultra posted is good stuff. Also, welcome! :)
promitheas Posted December 7, 2015 Author Posted December 7, 2015 Thanks Lucas, that does sound very usefull indeed :thumbup: and you too Ultra for the wiki page! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] "Dogfights are not numbers it's a dance"
