[[Ork]] '''Fightas''' are the smallest type of aircraft produced by Ork [[Mek Boyz]], used for dog-fighting and ground attack.
Fightas are built for speed and firepower, typically carrying [[Big Shoota]]s and a small wing of bombs and rockets. Despite its crude design, a Fighta is easily a match for any [[Imperial Navy]] fighter and its engine is remarkably effective, capable of producing a huge amount of thrust. Ork Fighta Pilots love nothing more then than to fly in close to enemy aircraft and tear it apart with hail of dakka.{{Fn|1}}
Fightas also incorporate two vector engine nozzles that can change the aircrafts direction by diverting some of the engine's thrust. This throws the Fighta violently into its new heading, a feature that appeals to the Ork pilot.{{Fn|6}}
