Title: AH Terms?
Post by: Aiswulf on November 16, 2001, 04:11:00 PM

There are 2 terms that I have run across in the message boards that I don't know what they mean.
Jarbo and Rato.

If someone would graciously inform this newbie what they mean I'd greatly appreciate it.
Also if there are other commonly used terms and/or abbreviations that are used in AH it would be nice to know that they are and what they mean.
Thanx  :)

I think you mean Jabo...

Jabo is a generic term for attacking ground targets in a fighter. Comes from the German abbreviation for Jagdbomber.

RATO is rocket assisted takeoff.
