The Phonetic Alphabet is an easy substitution cipher used by airplane
pilots or the police.
The main reason for using it is that some letters sound really similar (like B, P, D and T), and can easily get confused over a bad connection, but the words that represent these letters sound quite different (Bravo, Papa, Delta, Tango) and can't be confused so easily.
