When a fighter or bomber strikes ground forces, it is acting as an attack aircraft.
Many fighters can play this role, but recent wars have shown the value of dedicated attack aircraft, designed to hit hard and survive extensive battle damage.
Featured Aircraft:
- Douglas AD-6 Skyraider
- LTV A-7 Corsair
- Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II “Warthog,”
- Lockheed F-117 Nighthawk Stealth Fighter
