Question 169 Deck Safety
70% to passHow should the letter "V" be pronounced when spoken on the radiotelephone?
A
VIX TOO RE
B
VEE
C
VIC TO RE
D
VIK TAH
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) VIK TAH. The International Radiotelephony Spelling Alphabet, also known as the NATO phonetic alphabet, specifies that the letter "V" should be pronounced as "VIK TAH" when spoken on the radiotelephone. This standardized pronunciation is used to ensure clear and unambiguous communication, especially in noisy or challenging radio environments. The other options are incorrect because they do not follow the established NATO phonetic alphabet. For example, "VIX TOO RE" and "VIC TO RE" are not the standardized pronunciations for the letter "V".
