About Bombers
Bombers - Military Aircraft; photo wallpapers; megawallpapers.org : A bomber is a military aircraft designed to attack ground targets, primarily by dropping bombs.
- Strategic bombers
are primarily designed for long-range strike missions against strategic
targets such as supply bases, bridges, factories, and shipyards in
order to damage an enemy's war effort. Examples: Avro Lancaster, B-17 Flying Fortress, B-52 Stratofortress, F-111 , Tupolev Tu-16, Tupolev Tu-160, Gotha G.
- Tactical bombers are smaller aircraft that operate at shorter
range, typically along with troops on the ground. This role is filled
by many designs, including those listed below. In modern terms, any
combat aircraft that is not a purpose-designed strategic bomber falls
into this category.
- Ground attack aircraft (or "close air support" aircraft) are designed to loiter over a battlefield and attack tactical targets, such as tanks, troop concentrations, etc. Examples: Stuka, Il-2 Shturmovik, A-10 Warthog, Sukhoi Su-25.
- Fighter-bombers
(also called tactical fighters, strike fighters, and attack fighters)
are multi-role combat aircraft which can (at least theoretically) be
equipped for either air-to-air combat or air-to-ground combat. Many
fighter bombers were also designed to engage in aerial combat
immediately after attacking ground targets. Modern multi-role combat
aircraft are designed to fulfill multiple roles due to budget
restrictions as often as they are for versatility. Examples: Chengdu J-10, Hawker Typhoon, Sukhoi Su-7, Republic F-105 Thunderchief, F/A-18 Hornet, and the Panavia Tornado.
