ALRIGHT GUYS. I MADE A GUIDE FOR NAMING AIRCRAFTS. TAKE A LOOK!
So, i saw some people has been struggling to come up idea for their craft name. According to my result of research, A name of craft actually take around 40% of an appereance of craft, while the rest is craft image and the name of creator. So i came up with this idea and i will show you how i name things.
Usually, my formula of naming craft is:
1.AR+RN
2.AS+AR+RN
AR: Aircraft Role (ex: Fighter, Bomber, Etc)
AS: Aircraft Status (ex: Experimental, Prototype, Production )
RN: Random Number
Example:
1. LB-75.
Light Bomber-75
2. XASF-82
Experimental Air Superiority Fighter-82
Now, most people need to codename/nickname their craft so they can either give the craft a proper feeling of realism or just to make it sound cooler.
But this is the problem. Codenaming a craft could be harder than normally naming it, because you have fewer instances of reference.
But fear not, i have created a list in which there are amazing number of names i could think of. Take a look.

@Stratus USS Triton sound better
I just like to think of cool Latin names.
Like The F-32 Hyperius. or The USS Tython.
or just have easy to remember names
Oh look a New Zealand bird. Ha. You craft, have been named.
Well lots of my builds are based on real life aircrafts but in Nicro they usually has other names.
An aircraft's name come with 7 parts.
Here's an example: [Succland] [][F]-[19][A] [Block. 4] [Valentina]
The first part is the manufacturers' names, like Succland, an industry complex group located in East coast United Federation.
The second part called "UMR", refers to Universal Mission Rode. The UMR here has been left as a blank because The F-19 acturally has multiple abilities. It's some kind.. of a multirule.
The third part called "TMR" refers to Theatre Mission Role. The TMR here is F, because the basic roles of the Valentina was a fighter aircraft.
The fourth part is a number. It points spcified models with the same TMR only, ignorance the UMR.
The fifth part is Variant code. Arranged alphabetically, usually A/C/E etc. are single seater variants, B/D/F are double.
The sixth part is Batch code. Which batch this plane is, which block shown in the name.
The seventh part is Nickname of an aircraft.
.
The first and sixth part mostly appears in official files and reports only.

UMR list
O-Observe
E-Electronical
M-Aerial Assault(Helicopters), Maintaince(Fixed wing)
T-Tactical
U-Utility
A-Ground Attack
X-Experimental
P-Prototype
Y-Pre-produced prototype
TMR List
A-Attacker
B-Bomber
C-Transporter
E-Recon
F-Fighter (Combat Aircraft)
H-Helicopter
I-Intelligence aircraft(like some of the drones)
K-Aerial Tanker
T-Trainer
Nice, I usually just make it an acronym of the plane's name and then take the number of engines and add a zero.
Example: Latitude LV-2 (Thrust vectoring) Latitude LCD-20 (detachable cabin) Latitude LH-300 (helicopter, only has 2 rotors)
i name my current fleet of aircraft based on local names of animals, local places and local ethnic weapons
i name my unreleased builds like this: ZZ (Zig-Zag Division) R.150 (number example)
nickname wise i usually think of some animal it either resembles or acts like
I mock you
Ooo my naming system is different, jointly done with Quackie
MRF. - Multi Role Fighter
A. - Attack
AV. - Attack VTOL
H. - Heli (A can be applied)
R. - Recon
And so on
MAI designations are named after real world warships
id like to add Wyvern, Wyrm, Long, Leviathan, Draco, Vixen, Drake, and Wyrmvern
