Description
A staple of every nation's air force, Fighters patrol the skies against any hostile air units. The Fighter holds a clear advantage against all air units except other Fighters, while its high speed allows it to escape most land-based attacks. The plane can even stand its ground against a Strato Destroyer, the bulkiest and most adaptive of the air units.
