	- ''Strategic Bombers'': Flying at a high altitude these planes are great for taking out buildings or large immobile unit clusters. Each bomber has a large fuel contingent but ~~uses it all up in its~~ one bomb ~~run~~. They fly very high up which means only flak and other aircraft can get to them.

With no defensive weapons they need protection from fighters and interceptors if you want them to survive. [Thunder/Shadow]

	- ''Ground attack'': Unlike bombers these units are meant to engage ground forces either on the move or not. They fly low to the ground which means missile units like Slashers or Jethros can hit them. Core's Vashp has powerful rockets and bombs. Arm's Toadfoot has rockets similar to the Vashp but trades in the bombs for an anti air missile and MG. Arm's Hellfish light bomber has a similar bomb drop to the vashp but no missiles (does have a tail mounted MG though).		- ''Ground attack'': Unlike bombers these units are meant to engage ground forces either on the move or not.

	- ''Gunships'': Ground attack and thats it. These units are designed to take out ground units lacking appropriate anti air. They fly low to the ground and as such can be hit by all anti air (and a few anti ground) weapons so wandering into a base is generally suicide.		- ''Gunships'': Ground attack and thats it.

	- ''Strategic Bombers'': ~~Coming soon!!!~~		- ''Strategic Bombers'': Flying high above the battlefield these heavy bombers are excellent at taking out defense or resource buildings. Like their lower level cousins they have larger fuel reserves but only one bomb load. But being at a higher tech level they have more hp and a light anti air MG mounted in a turret. Core has access to the Black Lily a specialized stealth bomber that lacks the MG of the Hurricane but has double the weapons damage.

			- ''Ground Attack'': Both sides have a specialize ground attack aircraft. Arm's Flying wing mounts a lower damage Annihilator laser (roughly 50% less) and twin bombs. The unit exception at taking out armored targets like tanks and defensive buildings. The Wing mounts an MG in the rear for air defense. Core's Firebat is a napalm bomber designed to take out clusters of kbots. It flies fast and low to the ground to avoid AA and hit its target. Other than its bombs it is unarmed.

			- ''Interceptors'': Mounting fast firing weapons these planes are ideal for taking out enemy bombers and ground attack aircraft. Arm's Voodoo has 1 anti air missile and several MGs. It is however next to useless against ground units. Core's Osprey has wing mounted plasma weapons and a centerline beamlaser. It can effectively engage ground targets unlike its Arm counterpart.

			- ''Radar Planes'': A flying radar tower these planes are your eyes in the sky. With unlimited fuel they can constantly provide radar coverage to your forces. They are fairly weak however and have no weapons to defend themselves.

			- ''Sonar Planes'': Flying sonar buoy. Pretty simple eh? Basically the same as the radar plane but provides sonar. Flies low to the ground like the top bomber

			- ''Transports'': Beefier versions of the level 1 transports, they can carry one unit of any tech level besides those that are untransportable. Arm's Dragonfly mounts a paralyzer weapon as well.
