Fighter aircraft
A fighter aircraft is a military aircraft designed primarily for air-to-air combat against other aircraft, as opposed to bombers and attack aircraft, whose main mission is to attack ground targets. The hallmarks of a fighter are its speed, maneuverability, and small size relative to other combat aircraft.
Many fighters have secondary ground-attack capabilities, and some are designed as dual-purpose fighter-bombers; often aircraft that do not fulfill the standard definition are called fighters. This may be for political or national security reasons, for advertising purposes, or other reasons.
A fighter's main purpose is to establish air superiority over a battlefield. Since World War I, achieving and maintaining air superiority has been considered essential for victory in conventional warfare. The success or failure of a belligerent's efforts to gain air supremacy hinges on several factors including the skill of its pilots, the tactical soundness of its doctrine for deploying its fighters, and the numbers and performance of those fighters. Because of the importance of air superiority, since the dawn of aerial combat armed forces have constantly competed to develop technologically superior fighters and to deploy these fighters in greater numbers, and fielding a viable fighter fleet consumes a substantial proportion of the defense budgets of modern armed forces.
A Fighter
They say you get stronger in the broken places
When you lean into the crisis that you're facing
In your weakness you're made strong
They say when you've fallen off a horse
The first thing you gotta do, of course is
Climb right back on
Baby, we've been letting go
When we should be hanging tough
When it comes to our love
I ain't giving up, giving up, giving up
I'm a, I'm a fighter, I must admit
I didn't see it coming now face to face
And baby, I ain't running
I won't do that anymore 'cause I'm a fighter
This love's worth fighting for
I could back down and fall to pieces
Just to fire with a million reasons
You know that's what I used to do
Oh, but I believe we can go the distance
Not take the path of least resistance
I'll be right here for you
Oh I'm a, I'm a fighter
I'm a, I'm a fighter
This loves worth fighting for
Ooh, I'm a fighter, I'm a fighter
(They say you get stronger in the broken places)
(When you lean into the crisis that you're facing)
(In your weakness you're made strong)
I'm a, I'm a fighter
(I could back down and fall to pieces)
(Just to fire with a million reasons)
(In your weakness you're made strong)
This loves worth fighting for, I'm a fighter
(They say you get stronger in the broken places)
(When you lean into the crisis that you're facing)
(In your weakness you're made strong)
Oh, I'm a fighter, I'm a fighter
(I could back down and fall to pieces)
(Just to fire with a million reasons)
(In your weakness you're made strong)
