=== Equip Name === Equipment English Name, ie “Abrams”, “Tomahawk” * the quotation mark character " is not allowed in this field. * Also, NATO names (ie ‘Frogger’) go here * the intention is to use Class names, not Unit names such as Arleigh Burke Class. * Do not use the term "improved" ** Where we include multiple units within a given class to represent improved versions use the pennant and name of the version where the improvement is introduced. For example the SSN-764 Boise is an Improved Los Angeles class Sub ** Ideally we would use only the class name for the unit and use the orbats to distribute pennant names and numbers to each ship. *** This should also be done anywhere a ship is reclassified. Use the original class entry and use the Orbat to assign it's new name/number * Include post-name part numbers here, ie: “Leopard 2A3” * Include post-name ‘Mark’ indicators here, ie “Chieftain Mk 5” ** Abbreviate Mark as "Mk" or optionally use dash (ie "Tomahawk-5") * Do not include modifier "Block", use dash or space instead (ie "Harpoon 1C") * Do not include redundant elements such as "Type", "Project", etc ** Use J-90 instead of Japanese Type-90 etc ** Use "CV-1143.4 Kiev" instead of Russian Carrier "Kiev Project 1143.4 CV" * Avoid redundancy (don’t use words “Tank”, “Missile” etc) ** Keep terms of "Phaser, Ion, Gun, just lose the additional word. * remove AA or SPAAG from anti air names, AT or ATGM from AT units * watch for use of dashes to link parts of names that are not normally linked. * Where units use "w/" for with removed these characters, leave the name of the other associated equipment * Upper & Lower Case except for acronyms * Descriptors such as “Light”, “Heavy” should be capitalized first letter * Special Cases: ** Infantry: Generic types such as ‘Engineer’, ‘Light Infantry’ ** Artillery: If Equipment has a Common name, ie ‘Rhino’, use it; *** Name should include Mobility, Gun size, Type; **** Mobility = “Towed” or blank for self-propelled **** Gun Size in mm with no space **** Type = “Howitzer” (exclude if has name), “MLRS” *** Ie "Towed 155mm Howitzer", "214mm MLRS", "Rhino 155mm" *** Inches should be "6in", no use of double-quote ** Don’t include ‘SP’ (Self Propelled) or SPG, SPH *** This standard is not consistently applied and is under challenge ** Anti-Air: Follow similar rules to Artillery; use Common name if avail; *** Otherwise Mobility, Gun size, Type; *** Ie "Towed 85mm Gun" ** NBC Missiles no longer need to include "NUCLEAR" or "CHEM" in name *** Based on the fact that all GUI displays of missile name must include Nuclear icon shown * name ideas for India; [/www.hindilearner.com/hindi%20words.html link] * For ships added as "non-buildable" to generate opening inventories, naming conventions can be less accurate but should follow these standards as much as possible. * Unit Naming Issues and Decisions: See [/docs.google.com/document/edit%3Fid%3D1JvR54oA37a1d1yX7om6pM9Y-7oKv2lNgZux4pgiWPCU Equipment List Standards - Unit Name Issues]. Implementation Note * UI will try to show full Model/Name entirely. ** name is combined with model code on export * Maximum # of characters in Model & Name combined is 27 (enforced?); recommend under 20. * Effective Update 7 & CW, the GUI will display the full Equipment name (ie "27th TANK Leopard 2A4"), so no dashes or other elements are required to workaround clipping of important name elements. This also means that unnecessary name elements should be shortened or eliminated. Naming Notes * Where NATO Model Codes and Names exist, use NATO Names only - any local names go into 'Alternate Name' field. * Where different names used in different countries, use the original (first developed) name, or if not known, use the most common name; other name(s) go into 'Alternate Name' field.
