It is part of the NATO phonetic alphabet/ICAO phonetic alphabet or international radio-telephony spelling alphabet. Both are communications 'code words' that represent letters of the alphabet. Bravo represents the letter 'B' and Tango the letter 'T.' The phonetic alphabet is used locally and internationally to prevent error, as well as transmit and receive messages regardless of one's native language.
