| Description |
In military messages and communications (e.g. on naval charts, or maps showing troop movements) the format is DDHHMMZ Mon YY, so for instance, "271545Z FEB 08" represents 15:45 Zulu time (which is to say UTC) on the 27th of February, 2008.
For Radio Navigational Warnings (RNWs), the international format is slightly different, using the explicit UTC text instead of the Zulu character, becoming "DDhhmm UTC Jun YY". E.g. "240923 UTC Jun 10" is "9:23am on 24th June 2010".
