About NATO Alphabet Translator

The NATO phonetic alphabet — formally the International Radiotelephony Spelling Alphabet, standardized by ICAO in 1956 — assigns a code word to each letter to prevent confusion between similar-sounding letters (B/D, M/N, S/F) when spelling over radio or phone.

The 26 code words: Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, Delta, Echo, Foxtrot, Golf, Hotel, India, Juliet, Kilo, Lima, Mike, November, Oscar, Papa, Quebec, Romeo, Sierra, Tango, Uniform, Victor, Whiskey, X-ray, Yankee, Zulu. Numbers use standard English words (Zero through Nine).

Used by military, aviation (air traffic control), maritime, emergency services, police, and anyone spelling out serial numbers, order codes, or names over bad phone connections. Paste any text and instantly get the NATO spelling for every character.
