I'm writing a novel set in the near future, where a naval task force is tracking enemy artillery fire, and preparing to launch missile. What would the current correct terminology be for tracking the bogeys? I was using Alpha Sierra, but was told this is only used for sonar contacts. I also need to know what a CIC would designate a disabled friendly unit that is under said attack. TIA. |
