Enumerator: callsigns Added with: 1.2.0
Description: Callsigns assigned to units are given numeric values. The game features two forms of callsigns, but in the files both are defined strictly as numbers.

Russian style callsigns all use 3 digit numbers: 903, 420, 018. NATO has a "callname, number, flightmember" style: Uzi 1-1, Hawg 8-1

Uses: Callsigns are set when spawning a new group, when assigning a new target for JTAC, or with the task setCallsign().
