Hi guys,

Could you please stop adding your beloved "Medium Combat Aircraft" to the list of attack aircraft from 2000-future, when all you have is a crappy computer graphical model?

Could you guys stop this craziness please?

 * Update: now it's the Advanced Medium Combat Aircraft, and has both a computer model and a metal wind-tunnel version. Maury Markowitz (talk) 13:05, 28 May 2015 (UTC)

Most of these are not attack aircraft
"Attack aircraft are military aircraft whose primary role in attacking targets on the ground"

Yet this list consists largely of completely unrelated designs. Among them are helicopters, fighters, bombers and even trainers. The MiG-19 is NOT an attack aircraft, it is a fighter that can be pressed into fighter-bomber roles. It was not designed nor was its primary role to be an attack aircraft.

 * Yeah, the F-16 doesn't belong on this list. Most of the other entries probably don't belong here either. --2001:4898:E008:3:7686:2D67:27EC:B1B5 (talk) 18:18, 28 October 2019 (UTC)

List format
Following this discussion on the Aviation WikiProject talk page, this list is to be reformatted to the "general" format as specified at WP:AVILIST. Note that the general format now retains the count of numbers built. If you have any objections to the format in principle, please raise them in the linked discussion. If you believe that this list should be an exception, please seek a local consensus on this talk page. &mdash; Cheers, Steelpillow (Talk) 16:10, 27 June 2019 (UTC)
