🔍 Clarification of Scope

While the Department of Defense Dictionary of Military and Associated Terms offers a comprehensive catalog of military language, it goes far beyond the operational needs of ZeroDelay.

Our mission is not to create experts in military linguistics, but to ensure safety, speed, and clarity in conflict zones.

That’s why we focus exclusively on the 250–300 Tactical English terms that you will commit to muscle memory — the language of life-saving actions under pressure.

These are the words that get shouted in chaos, whispered over radio, or flashed across a screen — and they must be understood instantly, with zero delay.

For those who wish to take a deeper dive into the broader military lexicon, we provide access to official references such as the DoD Dictionary and NATO Allied Publications.
