  1. Call the ball

    Tango

  2. rallypoint  12oclock low

  3. fox 1 is the 1st missile away

    bogey is an enemy plane

    your six is behind you

    roger is yes

    wilco is I will comply

    angels is altitude in 1000's

    twelve oclock is infront of you

    g is the force of gravity

  4. Actually "Fox 1" is a radar missle away, "Fox 2" is a heat seeking missle away.

    "Bogey" is an unidentified aircraft as opposed to "Bandit" which is definately a bad guy.

    And "call the ball/roger ball" is USN, not USAF.

  5. A popular one that the Iraqis always used was "bug out"!!

  6. usually the item its proper name you cannot recall is called f***ing ... gauge, or button, or switch

  7. well, there's the whole NATO alphabet that you can use. I don't know if that's what you're asking for. Stuff like "alpha, bravo, charlie, delta, echo, foxtrot, golf, hotel, india, juliet, kilo, lima, mike, november, oscar, papa, quebec, romio, siera, tango, uniform, victor, whiskey, x-ray, yankee, zulu....niner, fower, fife...

    Hope that helps
