AMRAAM

navigational accuracy
ANCHOR: 1 - Begin an orbit at a specific point or location. 2 - A refueling track flown by a
tanker aircraft.

AS FRAGGED: Perform the event as briefed or planned.
BANDIT: Known enemy aircraft. Only used when the contact is confirmed hostile.
BEAM/BEAMER: Descriptive terminology for an aircraft that maneuvered to stabilize between
70 degrees 110 degrees aspect. Can be used to describe your own action.
BELLY CHECK: Directive commentary to instruct recipient to roll over and check for bandits
underneath him.
BENT: Inoperative
BINGO FUEL: A predetermined fuel quantity that is required to safely return to base.
BLIND: Lost visual contact with appropriate friendly aircraft. Generally means that the
wingman lost sight of a flight lead. The opposite of this is VISUAL.
BOGEY: An unknown radar or visual contact.
BOGEY DOPE: A request for information about a specific target or threat. Generally directed
toward GCI/AWACS or other flight members.
BOX: Groups/contacts/formations in a square, as viewed on a radar display or from above.
BRACKET: Indicates geometry where aircraft will maneuver to a position on opposing sides of
a given point / target, either laterally / vertically/ or a combination of both. Basically, it is a
relatively short-range pincer maneuver.
BREAK: (Up/Down/Right/Left) –Directive to perform an immediate maximum performance
turn. Assumes a defensive situation that requires immediate action.
BREVITY: Denotes radio frequency is becoming saturated/degraded/jammed and more
concise/less R/T transmissions should be used.
BUDDY SPIKE: Illumination by friendly air to air radar.
BUG OUT: Separate from the engagement and head for a safe area or home.
BULLSEYE: A pre-briefed reference point. It is used to describe your position or that of the
target.
CLEAN: 1 - No radar contacts. 2 - An aircraft configuration without any external stores or
tanks.
CLEARED: Requested action is approved.
CLEARED HOT: Ordnance release is approved.
CLOSING: Bandit/bogey/target is decreasing its range.
COLD: 1 - Attack geometry that will result in a position behind the target. (lag pursuit) 2 -
Pointed away from the anticipated threats.
COMMITTED/COMMIT: Intent to engage/intercept.
CONTACT: Radar/IR contact; should include bearing, range, altitude (BRA), Bull’s-eye, or
geographic position information.
CONTINUE: Continue present maneuver; does not imply clearance to engage or to shoot.
COVER: Directive to assume supporting role and responsibilities.
DEFENSIVE: (Spike/Missile/SAM/Mud/AAA) – Subject is in a defensive position and
maneuvering with reference to the threat.
DRAG/DRAGGING: (Direction) – Bogey/Bandit maneuvering to 60 degrees or less aspect. Can
also describe your own actions.
ENGAGED: Maneuvering with respect to a threat or target in order to kill or negate an attack.
EXTEND: (Direction) – Directive to temporally depart the immediate ‘fight’ location gain
energy, distance, time, situational awareness, or a combination of all.
FADED: Radar contact is lost or has ‘faded’ from your radar display.
FEET WET/DRY: Transitioning from flying over water/land.
FENCE CHECK/FENCE IN/FENCE OUT: Set cockpit switches as appropriate to your location.
Generally means to arm up weapons as you enter enemy territory and safe them as you
proceed back to friendly airspace.
FLANK/FLANKING: Target with a stable aspect of 120 degrees to 150 degrees.
FLOAT: Expand the formation laterally within visual limits. Used to initiate a ‘bracket’ or to
force a commit from a trailing bandit.
FOX ONE: Simulated/actual launch of semi-active radar guided missile like an AIM-7 Sparrow.
FOX TW Simulated/actual launch of an IR guided missile like an AIM-9 Sidewinder.
FOX THREE: Simulated/actual launch of a fully active missile like an AIM-120 AMRAAM.
GADGET: Radar or sensor equipment.
GIMBALL: (Direction) – Radar target of interest is approaching azimuth or elevation limits of
your radar and you are about to loose contact.
GORILLA: A large number of unknown contacts that appear to maneuver to a common
objective.
GROUP: Radar Contacts that appear to operate together within approximately 3 nm of each
other.
HARD LEFT/RIGHT: Directive call to initiate a High-G, energy sustaining turn. Generally used
when entering a fight offensively. A ‘break’ turn is used for a defensive situation.
HIGH: Target altitude at or above 30,000 feet MSL.
HIT: A radar return on the radar display.
HOLDING HANDS: Aircraft together in a coordinated visual formation.
HOME PLATE: Home airfield.

- Pointing toward the anticipated threats in a CAP. 3 - Weapons employment authorized.
IN PLACE: (Left/Right) – Simultaneously maneuvering the whole flight in the specified
direction.
JOKER: Has had several definitions 1.) Fuel state is such that the mission can continue to the
target via planned route and RTB, but with little or no reserve.

display
