All distances in the game are metric (meters, kilometers). Speeds in aircraft, ship and ground unit HUDs are meters-per-second (m/s).  Speed shown on the carrier bridge helm screen is Knots (We don't really know why)  One knot is about 2 m/s.  So 100kts is about 51m/s

Distances and directions are usually spoken as BEARING for RANGE, eg:


  * //312 for six//
    * a distance of 6km on bearing 312 degrees


Bearings are usually spoken with all three digits, eg:

  * //zero one five//
    * 015
  * //three zero one//
    * 301
