Forces dispersed and moved to operational locations.Covering the latest technology developments since 2005, (This Week in Tech) has the unique distinction of being one of the world's first all-tech podcast networks. Communication networks, War Headquarters and C & R manned. NATO forces go to a high state of operational readiness. Triggered by Intelligence reports suggesting the enemy are preparing to launch an attack within 36 hours. Deployment as ORANGE alert state where time permits, plus anti-aircraft weapons manned. NATO Counter-Surprise alert states (most serious at top)Įnemy attack expected within minutes (the alert may have been triggered by enemy aircraft penetrating NATO airspace). In addition to Bikini alerts that applied to individual installation NATO had a "Counter-Surprise" Military Alert System to mobilise its military forces. No information available about a specific threat.

It can also mean "possible civil unrest", meaning safety cannot be guaranteed. There has been an assessment made that there is the possibility of an attack, but no defined target. It can also mean "potential terrorist threat". There is an increased likelihood of an attack, but no defined target. It can also mean "high alert", which could be a transition to war.

It was replaced by a more general and public terrorism alert status, the UK Threat Levels, an alert state system in use by the British government since 1 August 2006.īikini alert states (most serious at top) The system was illustrated in the British television drama Threads, produced by the BBC in 1984. The White state has rarely been used, and is only known to have been used for periods between the Good Friday Agreement and 9 September 2001.

The highest levels of alert, Red and Amber, were only intended to be maintained for limited times. Whilst similar to the DEFCON (defence readiness condition) alert states used in the United States, the Bikini levels were defined by the section of the military or organisation rather than UK-wide, and as a result, countermeasures and reactions to differing states may differ as acutely as from building to building. According to the Ministry of Defence, the word " bikini" was randomly selected by a computer. Signs giving the current alert state were displayed at the entrance to government buildings and military installations. The Bikini state was an alert state indicator previously used by the UK Ministry of Defence to warn of non-specific forms of threat, including civil disorder, terrorism or war.
