Whats that ''FOX 2' that i hear in every flight simulator video game with military aircrafts?

Fox is short for foxtrot which is the phonetic equivalent to the letter "F". "F" stands for "fire". Each weapon has a different number assigned to it.





-Fox One - Indicates launch of a semi-active radar guided missile (such as the AIM-7 Sparrow)


-Fox Two - Indicates launch of an infrared-guided missile (such as the AIM-9 Sidewinder)


-Fox Three - Indicates launch of an active radar guided missile (such as the AIM-120 AMRAAM)


-Fox Four/Guns - Indicates air-to-air or air-to-surface cannon fire.
