Scrambling (military) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Scrambling (military)
In military aviation, scrambling is the act of quickly getting military aircraft airborne to react to an immediate threat, usually to intercept hostile aircraft. ==Historical use== The term was used during the Battle of Britain, when RAF fighter pilots waited on the ground for Chain Home radar observations to detect oncoming enemy aircraft, at which point a telephone call would reach each fighter airfield (part of the Dowding system) and those air crews available would be scrambled. Every minute lost before take-off would be advantageous to the enemy, as those minutes could have allowed a pilot to gain extra height above the advancing plane formations. Information passed to the scrambling fighters included location and height (''Angels'' - hence phrases such as ''Angels One Five'' for aircraft approaching at 15,000 ft) and a rough estimate of numbers. Unidentified aircraft were known as ''bogeys'' while known enemy ones were called ''bandits''. The scramble order was communicated to alert pilots at the base by the loud ringing of a bell.
