STANAG 6001: A LINGUODIDACTIC FRAMEWORK FOR MILITARY ENGLISH PROFICIENCY ASSESSMENT

The increasing importance of English as a lingua franca in international defense cooperation has necessitated standardized approaches for evaluating language proficiency in military contexts. The NATO Standardization Agreement (STANAG) 6001 is a widely accepted way to test military personnel's language skills. This study examines STANAG 6001 from a linguodidactic perspective, highlighting its role as both an evaluative tool and a pedagogical framework for improving communicative competence in military English. The debate emphasizes theoretical foundations, practical obstacles, and comparative frameworks, particularly the CEFR, utilizing perspectives from Western, Russian, and Uzbek study. It also supports the incorporation of STANAG 6001 principles into the military education system of Uzbekistan. The study finds that STANAG 6001 is a complete and flexible standard that makes it easier for military English to be used by people from different countries, for schools to be the same, and for people to get better at their jobs.
