A "Strike Fighter" is a type of military aircraft designed to perform both air-to-air combat and ground attack missions. These versatile planes combine the capabilities of traditional fighter jets with those of attack aircraft, allowing them to engage enemy aircraft while also delivering precision strikes on ground targets. One well-known example of a strike fighter is the F/A-18 Hornet, used by the United States Navy and Marine Corps. This aircraft can carry a variety of weapons, including missiles and bombs, making it effective in diverse combat scenarios, from dogfights to close air support missions.
