Standardised Nomenclature

[drspankle]

Can we have the option to select a naming convention for military hardware?  At the minute we have a mix of NATO and Russian nomenclature on the F-10 map, the notifications, and the JTAC menu.  For example, it shows an SU-33 firing an R-73 whilst an SA15 fires a 9M330 missile at an F-16 firing an AIM-120.  Can we have the option to use purely NATO reporting names?  I spent a career learning the range and ceilings of SA6s and SA11s  without ever knowing they were called a Kub or a Buk!  Similarly I know the threat posed by an AA-10C or AA-12, but need to look up what an R-77 is.

I had the same experience the other day. On a mission where the goal was to take out an SA-6 battery, I glanced at the kneeboard and saw that the target at the waypoint i was referencing was a "Kub blah blah gibberish". I was momentarily very confused until I realized "kub" = SA-6.
