NAME

Acme::MetaSyntactic::soviet -- NATO codenames for Soviet-designed equipment

DESCRIPTION

Some codenames given by NATO to Soviet-designed aircraft, missiles, submarines, radars and other electronic systems. The various categories and sub-categories are

  • electronic

  • electronic/radars

  • electronic/misc

  • vehicles

  • vehicles/aircraft

  • vehicles/helicopters

  • vehicles/missiles

  • vehicles/submarines

  • vehicles/error

The default category is 'electronic'.

VERSION

This is version 0.04, the "Guideline" version, released on the 56th anniversary of the downing of Gary Power's U-2 by a SA-2 Guideline.

SYNOPSIS

use Acme::MetaSyntactic;

my $meta = Acme::MetaSyntactic->new( 'soviet' );

print $meta->name();          # return a single name
my @names = $meta->name( 4 ); # return 4 distinct names (if possible)

If you want some category other than 'electronic', the second line should read:

my $meta = Acme::MetaSyntactic->new( 'soviet', category => 'vehicle/aircraft' );

If meta from Acme::MetaSyntactic is installed, you can use it from the command line:

meta soviet

meta soviet/vehicles/submarines

SOURCES

Note: I have used only sources published before the fall of the Soviet Union. Therefore, the module name is A::MS::soviet, with no "ex-" prefix. For each entry, the sources are listed, with page numbers for the books. The games use data cards, which are unnumbered.

Some sources, especially early sources, may contain some errors. Some equipment may appear with faulty intelligence reports which give a wrong code or description. And a later intelligence report would correct it. The best example is the Backfire, first given the code "Tu-26" and then the code "Tu-22M".

Main Sources

These sources contain extensive lists or extensive tables of soviet equipment.

  • Pat-Led-1 written by J-J Patry and P. Lederer published by Editions Presse & Recherche abbreviated as PL.

SOVIET EQUIPMENT

ELECTRONIC

The codenames for electronic devices are composed of two words. As you can notice, similar devices share one word and differ with the other word, e.g. Scan Fix and Scan Odd. You may find in other sources these codenames aggregated as a single word, e.g. Barlock.
