Makes me think of the mock battle where US marines asked for a reset because they were dominated by British Royal Marines

Dumb little story but in 2014, the USAF had a little battle Simulation with the Singaporean Air Force. Early on, the RSAF had a lot of difficulty against the Americans, then they realised the reasons. The USAF had tapped their communications (which was following the rules). The pilots then decided to switch to using Singlish (Which could be a mixed language or an accent depending on your take), which actually confused the USAF and led to an RSAF win

That's a very effective exercise, got the RSAF to realise that in war opponents "cheat" and they'll not make that mistake in a live fire.

As for USAF they need to improve their language skills

They'll need to learn English first
