History of the NATO Phonetic Alphabet
The NATO Phonetic alphabet's full name is "international
radiotelephony spelling alphabet". The NATO Phonetic Alphabet was
developed in the 1950s to avoid the misunderstanding caused by poor
radio acoustics where an S and an F for example are easily confused.
It replaced other phonetic alphabets, such as the RAF phonetic
alphabet, Western Front slang or "signalese", Royal navy phonetic
alphabet and the US military "able baker" alphabet. The experiences
of which were used to produce the NATO standard. Certain non English
speaking countries use special umlaut characters which have their
own extensions. |
