In terms of numbers this is the most important category of combat aircraft; yet, if the media area is to be believed, the general public have never heard of it, so attack aircraft have to be called either "fighters" or "bombers". Their origin lay in aircraft of 1916-18 called ground strafers or trench fighters which were armoured to survive in close proximity to a land battle whilst doing what they could to harass the enemy land forces. 2, record 1, English, - attack%20aircraft
