Acme::MetaSyntactic::soviet -- NATO codenames for Soviet-designed equipment
Some codenames given by NATO to Soviet-designed aircraft, missiles, submarines, radars and other electronic systems. The various categories and sub-categories are
electronic
electronic/radars
electronic/misc
vehicles
vehicles/aircraft
vehicles/helicopters
vehicles/missiles
vehicles/submarines
vehicles/error
The default category is 'electronic'.
This is version 0.06, the Fresco version, released on the 49th anniversary of the dogfight between a MiG-17 Fresco flown by ace Colonel Tomb and a F-4 Phantom flown by soon-to-be-aces Cunningham and Driscoll
use Acme::MetaSyntactic; my $meta = Acme::MetaSyntactic->new( 'soviet' ); print $meta->name(); # return a single name my @names = $meta->name( 4 ); # return 4 distinct names (if possible)
If you want some category other than 'electronic', the second line should read:
my $meta = Acme::MetaSyntactic->new( 'soviet', category => 'vehicle/aircraft' );
If meta from Acme::MetaSyntactic is installed, you can use it from the command line:
meta
meta soviet meta soviet/vehicles/submarines

Note: I have used only sources published before the fall of the Soviet Union. Therefore, the module name is A::MS::soviet, with no "ex-" prefix. For each entry, the sources are listed, with page numbers for most books. The games use data cards, which are unnumbered.
A::MS::soviet
Some sources, especially early sources, may contain some errors. Some equipment may appear with faulty intelligence reports which give a wrong code or description. And a later intelligence report would correct it. The best example is the Backfire, first given the code "Tu-26" and then the code "Tu-22M".
These sources contain extensive lists or extensive tables of soviet equipment.
