The most common aircraft used by the [[Orks]], '''Fighta-Bommerz''' represent all the facets of Ork [[Kultur]]: Speed, Gunz, and Noise. Fighta-Bommerz are created by the few [[Meks]] who are interested in aircraft. As with all Ork vehicles, Fighta-Bommerz are kit-bashed affairs that usually defy the laws of aerodynamics, and fly despite their ungainly, brutish construction.{{Cite This}}
==Overview==
Fighta-Bommers are larger and sturdier Ork aircraft when compared to the likes of [[Fighta]]s or [[Dakkajet]]s. They are built to satisfy the Orkish trait of might makes right, and are thus heavily armored and armed. The [[Flyboyz]] of these craft tend to be larger and more dominant members of Ork society, often having started out as humble Dakkajet pilots. Where in other Ork Clans these would have gone on to become [[Nobz]], here they pilot the more privileged machines of a warband's aircraft inventory. These veteran pilots lead underlings into battle and form retinues of their own, and in time may become [[Fly Boss]]es themselves.{{Fn|105}}
