Good idea. No guarantees, but we will look into implementing it.

For now, I am pretty sure there's a folder called NATO Symbol Map or something under the /Manual folder. Not at my PC at the moment, but have a look around it should be there somewhere.
In the folder there's the NATO symbol bitmap like above, and a PDF with the explanations.

Using the F4 key, say, to access the NATO icon docs is not a bad idea. But yes, in the meantime, players can manually access the docs as Crossroads describes them.

A sneak-peek preview of the new-and-improved, still work-in-progress Unit Handbook:
There are still a few to-dos in that display, but it is nearly settled.
An intensive effort is underway to give the game's UI a major facelift. Well, maybe not plastic surgery, but in some ways a bit beyond mere cosmetics. And striving for a consistent style and color theme. The tweaked Schedule Dialog, for instance:
The tweaked Target Dialog:
Everything still subject to change of course.

Credit goes to Crossroads, leader of the UI Improvement Project, and principal designer of the revamped UI. He does the design and graphics, I do the coding.
