Which is the correct phonetic alphabet code for the letter Q?

The phonetic alphabet is designed to provide clear communication, especially in situations where letters could be misunderstood, such as over the phone or radio. In this system, each letter of the English alphabet is assigned a specific code word. The correct code word for the letter Q is "Quebec." This choice gives a distinct and recognizable term that helps prevent confusion with similar-sounding letters.

"Quebec" is part of the NATO phonetic alphabet, which is used internationally in military and aviation contexts, ensuring that the letter Q is easily identifiable. The other choices correspond to different letters: "Papa" represents P, "Romeo" represents R, and "Tango" stands for T. Each of these terms is chosen for its clarity and ease of understanding, but they are not associated with the letter Q.
