Airplanes
In the military, airplanes are used for many things.
Some of them can fly at super sonic speed.
Most planes are bombers, fighters, and transports. They can destroy
enemy aircraft, airports, or weapon factories. The military planes
can also photograph enemy bases and spy on the enemy. The F-15 Eagle
is an example of a fighter plane. It fires Sparrow missiles which
are highly explosive.
Helicopters
Helicopters are like planes with a blade that brings
them into the air and helps them land. It propels the helicopter
forward. Helicopters can be used as transports to move the infantry
from one place to another. Helicopters can also be used to destroy
enemy bases.
Tanks
Tanks are gigantic destroying machines. They fire
missiles which can destroy pretty much anything. The tanks may sound
good now but they are very heavy and quite slow. They can be dropped
out of planes but it takes many parachutes to slow them down so that they
have a safe landing.
