Could somebody explain the terminology in this please?

In particular:
"RHWR"
"Overiddance"
"Theres the canisters" (Audible alarm in background)

"Deltas off"
"Charlies off"
" We had some Roland on the run-in".




Plus last comment about under the wing and being within quater of a mile 'of it'.
That's actually my youtube video clip with my youtube ID "Brecklander"

RHWR is Rear Homing Warning Receiver.
Overiddance is actually "overridden"
"There's the canisters" means that the JP233 sub munitions have been deployed and the empty canisters have been jettisoned.
I'm sure its Charlie hop and Delta hop. I'm not aircrew so I'm not sure what it means but googling it seems to indicate "hop n: A mission or flight."
Roland as someone else pointed out is a AA missile system.

As for the "quarter of a mile thing", I think the nav is saying that because the AAA battery disappeared under the wing of the aircraft, they must have been withing 1/4 mile of it.
