==Winged aircraft==
===Fighta===

[[Ork]] '''Fightas''' are the smallest type of aircraft produced by Ork [[Mekboyz]], used for dog-fighting and ground attack. They are built for speed and firepower, typically carrying [[Big Shoota]]s and a small wing of [[bomm]]s and [[rokkit]]s. 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 to fly in close to enemy aircraft and tear it apart with hail of dakka.{{Fn|1a}}{{Fn|8b}}

The Dakkajet is incredibly fast Ork aircraft propelled by a single, massive jet engine. It roars through the sky, gunz blazing a near constant stream of bullets from its [[Supa Shoota]]s, tormenting fleeing infantry or enemy aircraft. Dakkajet pilots believe firmly in quantity over quality, and commonly bolt as many guns as possible to their aircraft - some of those bullets are bound to hit the target.{{Fn|2a}}
===Burna-Bommer===

For some Flyboyz, guns might not be as fun as flamethrowers. Orks love fire and it was therefore inevitable that someday a Mek would think of attaching canisters of volatile promethium to the underside of an Ork Bommer - thus the Burna-Bommer was born. Equipped with incendiary bombs and missiles, this aircraft performs its attack runs at as low an altitude as possible. Such a technique is, predictably dangerous, and not only for the target.{{Fn|2b}}
===Blitza-Bommer===
{{main|Blitza-Bommer}}

The Blitza-Bommer is an Ork dive bomber suitable for the bravest (some might say the most unhinged) Flyboys. These aircrafts 'aim' their bombs by diving at the target, releasing their Boom Bomb at the very last moment possible - something which tends to panic the onboard Grot Gunner. As every flyboy knows, you go much faster when plummeting downwards, and some Orks completely forget to pull out of their dive and end up smashing into the ground. Once they've blown everything up (and hopefully not themselves) then there's a pair of supa shootas ready to mop up any stray or squishy targets.{{Fn|2c}}
===Wazbom Blastajet===

The '''Wazbom Blastajet''' is a aerial sky destroyer bristling with exotic weaponry and piloted by the maddest [[Mekboyz]].{{Fn|18}}
