bonesvf103 Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 I'm not completely up to speed on JTAC brevity codes. Does anyone know what these mean/when they are used?

bonesvf103 Posted November 21, 2020 Author Share Posted November 21, 2020 You can find the actual manuals online. Yes, I have them, but not all of those commands are in thereor are explained fully, or told when you are supposed to use them (sequence). v6, boNes "Also, I would prefer a back seater over the extra gas any day.

silverdevil Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multis...l_brevity_code give this a looksie. unfortunately PULSE is not listed. and i think you meant TERMINATE. pulse i believe is a shortened command. another good link is this. multiservice brevity code listing https://apps.dtic.mil/dtic/tr/fulltext/u2/a404426.pdf AKA_SilverDevil AKA Forums My YouTube “It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.” — Mark Twain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madone Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Those are for IR/laser designation procedure, since you asked : Pulse = illuminate a position w/ a flashing IR pointer (used to deconflict several pointers on the battlefield) Snake = oscillate IR pointer in a figure 8 shape about a target, used to distinguish friendly from target Rope = circle IR pointer in the given direction (cardinal or straight up) to allow acquisition of friendly position Spot = laser designation acquisition Terminate = not used anymore, "cease" is used instead i.e "cease laser/sparkle" Shift beam = doesn't exist Shift = shift laser/IR/whatever to the given direction There are many more brevities for IR or laser procedures, you should learn them, it's easy. SPARKLE/STEADY/DEADEYE/NEGATIVE LASER/CONTACT SPARKLE/10 SECONDS to name a few.

bonesvf103 Posted November 21, 2020 Author Share Posted November 21, 2020 Thanks. What about brevity such as Have Quick and Mickey? I heard this come up in some of Sedlo's missions. v6, boNes "Also, I would prefer a back seater over the extra gas any day.

Madone Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Mickey is for the Time Of the Day for Have Quick, havequick is a radio mode. Go active is the brevity for initiating HQ.

Notso Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Thanks. Can you give an example how/when these are used? v6, boNes A mickey (TOD) is typically self generated by each A/C using a GPS time stamp. However, if someone in the flight can't get a mickey for some reason - then another airplane can pass a mickey to get them synched up with the rest of the flight. The comm might sound like this: "Rocket flight, standby Mickey in five". The flight lead would then send a tone over the flight common radio freq to make sure everyone was on the same TOD. Once everyone was able to go into Have Quick Mode, the comm would be: "Rocket flight, Push (or Go) button 5, active". "Rocket check active" (flight responds) "twoop, threep, fourp" System HW: i9-9900K @5ghz, MSI 11GB RTX-2080-Ti Trio, G-Skill 32GB RAM, Reverb HMD, Steam VR, TM Warthog Hotas Stick & Throttle, TM F/A-18 Stick grip add-on, TM TFRP pedals.

Madone Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Thanks. Can you give an example how/when these are used? v6, boNes Since HQ is frequency hopping, it has to be time synchronized and I guess MICKEY is what you call to give the TOD, but don't get me wrong, I have never used it. And for "go active", well you use that when you want HQ mode for your comms eh? EDIT : @Notso beat me to it!

bonesvf103 Posted January 10, 2021 Author Share Posted January 10, 2021 What does it mean when they say "octopus" and "no alibis"? v6, boNes "Also, I would prefer a back seater over the extra gas any day.
