NATO phonetic alphabet numbers
Letters get Alfa–Zulu. Digits get figure words — Nadazero, Unaone, Bissotwo… Novenine — so “five” and “nine” do not collapse on a bad channel. This page is the 0–9 helper: tap a digit, copy the word, or paste a number string.
Figures · 0–9
ICAO figure code words (Nadazero … Novenine). Letters stay on the main chart.
International spelling alphabet (ICAO / NATO word list) — not a military training certificate, not APCO department codes.
More detail
Letter spelling stays on the main chart. Here we only map digits.
When to use
Reading flight numbers, gate codes, or phone digits aloud with figure words.
When not to
Not a full phone-number formatter. Not letter spelling (use the main desk).
Assumptions
ICAO-style figure words. Letters in the digit box are ignored.
Worked examples
In: Digit 5
Out: Pantafive
In: Text 19
Out: UNAONE · NOVENINE
How it works
Tap 0–9 or type digits → copy the figure-word line.
Common traps
- Figure words look odd in English — that is normal for the ICAO set.
- Some local trainings use simpler digit reading; follow your org if required.
- Mixed letter+digit callsigns: spell letters on the main desk, digits here.
