Each country has its own air fleet under the name of the Air Force, which is included in the modern armies. The Air Force began to appear in the early 20th century in conjunction with the beginning of the deployment of aircraft and appearance, and Britain was one of the first countries to possess an air force, [1] The use of aircraft at that time limited to the bombing of enemy positions and forces, in addition to exploration and reconnaissance. Air Force aircraft are connected to ground forces to pass information to, and the Air Force uses several types of warplanes in times of war, and is divided into several types and tasks assigned to them. A warplane is called a military aircraft; it is classified into two basic types: non-combat aircraft. The weapons are not their main cargo, they can not attack or defend themselves. Examples of non-combat aircraft include: Aerial Refueling, a large-scale aircraft that serves as a fuel tank for the supply of strategic bombers, or aircraft that intend to make long flights without landing. The KC-46A One example of this type of aircraft is used by US forces. [2] Trainer Aircraft is a one-room aircraft called cockpit, Only two seats for the pilot and the trainee who is accompanied by his pupil, and is not used in military matters, but as a means of training students in combat and navigational aviation skills and development. The Yak-152 is an example of this type of aircraft. : Cargo Aircraft) used in the transfer of military forces and weapons, and characterized by having a door of large size used for the loading and unloading of weapons, and has a structure of huge size, ANTONOV AN-225 MRIYA is an example of this type of aircraft, the largest cargo aircraft in history in terms of size. [4] Reconnaissance Aircraft (Reconnaissance Aircraft) Is an unarmed military aircraft, used by the military to comb the enemy areas and monitor its activities and conditions. Unmanned Non-Combat Aerial Vehicle, known as the "Dune", is characterized by the lack of a navigation team or command to be controlled remotely or by programmed to take a certain route, carrying military purposes on board Surveillance cameras for reconnaissance and targeting purposes. [5] Combat aircraft Combat aircraft are weapons of mass destruction, capable of attacking and defending themselves. Examples of combat aircraft E: fighter aircraft (in English: Fighter Aircraft) characterized by fighter aircraft speeds and their small size, ease of maneuverability for use, and is working to target enemy warplanes and attack, and is considered one of the most important types of aircraft that rely on the armed forces and the air force in achieving supremacy in the airspace. The Lockheed Martin F-22 Raptor is one of the best fighter aircraft ever seen; it is invisible to most radars. It is based on a combination of good stealth techniques and engines that support long-distance travel. [6] Aircraft supports long-range warplanes; they are used to launch and attack near-ground targets. These include the American A-10 Thunderbolt II, which is designed to provide support Joey near Ground Forces. [7]
Interceptor Aircraft: Interceptor Aircraft is characterized by its highly efficient combat capabilities, high speed, air-to-air combat capability, and the most popular interceptor aircraft, the MiG-31, used by Russia and Kazakhstan in their interests. [8] The Boeing F / A-18 Advanced Hornet is one of the latest US interceptors to enter service in 2015. [9] Bombers: Bombers use a launcher in the heat And to target enemy positions and drop bombs, whether land or naval, and often focused on targeting military and economic headquarters. The Northrop Grumman B-2 Spirit is one of the best-built American launchers, one of the world's most expensive aircraft designed and capable of carrying approximately 18,000 kg of weapons. [10] The Russian Tupolev Tu-160 is the heaviest aircraft manufactured, It was used in the Cold War and can carry up to 40 tons of rockets. [10] Stealth Aircraft was manufactured in World War II by German scientists, And obtained this feature as a result of the use of special materials in the design of their surface, used to launch raids on military sites without being detected by the radar. The PAK FA T-50 is one of the best stealth aircraft used by Russian forces. The aircraft was designed to compete with the American F-22 and made its first flight in 2010. [11] Unmanned Combat The X-43 is the most advanced type of drones in the world, while the X-45 is the latest type of aircraft of this type. [12] The history of the military aircraft in 1783 Done The first balloon, made of hot air and hydrogen gas, was used for military purposes and was used as the first reconnaissance balloon in 1794 by French forces during the American and British Civil War in Africa in 1884-1901. [13] In 1900, By the German Finland Kun, [14] can carry 50 kg of explosives while the balloons were used for reconnaissance only. [15] In 1909 a plane was made heavier than air by a motor at the hands of the brother [19] In 1911, Italian forces conducted their first aerial reconnaissance mission on Turkish positions in Libya. [17] In World War I, 1914-1918, most aircraft were used for reconnaissance and surveillance purposes, Initially for surveillance and reconnaissance purposes only, then supplied with weapons and linked to ground forces. Some 166 aircraft appeared during this period. [16] In World War II 1939-1945, the number of aircraft used increased significantly (18) The German Lippish GB was the fastest aircraft, with a speed of 808 miles per hour (808 miles per hour)
