Stupid question but i need it for school. What do you call the alphabet were it goes like alpha beta charlie? and if anyone would be kool enough to write it out i would apprectiate it very much.

I've heard it called radio alphabet, navy alphabet and even NATO alphabet so I'm sure either one would work.

That list is right. My friend is training to become a commercial airline pilot, and he has the whole thing memorized. So I checked with him.

why is it used? is it to avoid confusion between letters like V, D, T and stuff on the radio?

And, in case you care for future reference, it's called the Phonetic alphabet.

The proper name is Phonetic alphabet, it has been around far longer than NATO.
