Air Support

Air support refers to military aircraft assisting ground forces during operations. These aircraft provide artillery-like firepower, surveillance, and strategic coordination to help troops fight against enemies, defend positions, or achieve specific objectives. This support can include fighter jets, attack helicopters, or bombers delivering targeted attacks, all while coordinating closely with ground commanders. Air support enhances battlefield flexibility, offers rapid response options, and increases the safety and effectiveness of ground units by addressing threats that are difficult to reach from the ground.
