About Translations, the definition "The letter V in the ICAO spelling alphabet": If this is specified as ICAO then all translations are the same by nature, it should probably say ".. in a national spelling alphabet", then one could add different translations, f.e. from German spelling alphabet, Portuguese spelling alphabet which are not the ICAO alphabet.

Weird etymology
Re: Latin vic- is also the root of vincō, vincere (“to conquer”).

Not directly: PIE *wi-(n-)k- is also the root of vincō, vincere (“to conquer”).

?

Indeed: *wéyk-tōr ~ *wik-tr-és Italic: Latin: victor https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Reconstruction:Proto-Indo-European/weyk-
