I go for being practical: using an already established system beats having to reinvent the wheel.

IC - Industrial Complex
KBF- Kill Britain First
KIF - Kill Italy First

It’s only established for a few players, like the folks on this forum. However, newer players are not familiar with it.

Some terms are pretty much established with the A&A community, I’d say, like KGF, OOB, etc., since their use started with Classic.
For newer players it is also better to use the US Navy system because if they know any system then that would most likely be it.
And I’m not a US citizen so I don’t really mind whether the Army or the Navy rules :)

Thanks IL. I think the other one was in a specific game subforum it wasn’t easy to find but Yavid’s seems more complete. Maybe we could just compile all info on one of them.

For the record, “SS” for submarine is fine because it means ‘Sub-Surface.’  (Served aboard SSN 772 for 4.5 years)
‘SSN’ = Sub-Surface Nuclear
