Not to be argumentative but the right explenation should be:

shot off the tail of another enemy, killed by an unseen enemy; a total lack of SA that make someone ignore a possible threath; a very asinine way to be killed:rofl

For a list of vox calls see the link in my sig below, it's under Radio Jargon. Also note that the site hasn't been updated in a L-O-N-G time. So some of the info regarding ordnance n' such is a tad out-dated.

Visual -- you have sight of a friend
Blind -- you don't have sight
Bug Out -- nose down, unload, WEP to get away
Angels -- Altitude in thousands of feet, i.e., 190 8 O'clock, angles 10
