Russian spelling alphabet

The Russian spelling alphabet is a spelling alphabet (or "phonetic alphabet") for Russian, i.e. a set of names given to the alphabet letters for the purpose of unambiguous verbal spelling. It is used by the Russian army, navy and the police. The large majority of the identifiers are common individual first names, with a handful of ordinary nouns and grammatical identifiers also.
