EA-18G GrowlerCarrier-capable airborne electronic attack aircraftBuilt: Boeing / United StatesThe EA-18G Growler is a Boeing-built electronic attack derivative of the two-seat F/A-18F Super Hornet, fielded to jam, detect, and attack hostile radars, communications, and air-defense networks while retaining missile carriage for suppression missions. U.S. Navy and Australian Growlers provide carrier or land-based electronic warfare support, with recent documented use in Operation Inherent Resolve, Red Sea operations against Houthi forces, and the U.S.-Iran strike context.Conflict side archive

A-10 Thunderbolt IIClose air support attack aircraftBuilt: Fairchild Republic Co. / United StatesThe A-10 Thunderbolt II is a U.S. single-seat, twin-engine attack aircraft built around close air support, austere operations, survivability, and the 30 mm GAU-8/A cannon. U.S. military sources document A-10C use in Operation Inherent Resolve against ISIS and in Afghanistan during Operation Freedom's Sentinel, where its loiter time, precision weapons, and cannon gave commanders a dedicated low-altitude support platform.
F-15E Strike EagleDual-role strike fighterBuilt: McDonnell Douglas; Boeing / United StatesThe F-15E Strike Eagle is a two-seat U.S. Air Force dual-role fighter built for long-range interdiction, precision attack, and self-escorted air-to-air combat. Its conformal fuel tanks, targeting/navigation pods, radar, and two-person cockpit allow it to strike ground targets day or night while retaining fighter performance, a role documented in Operation Inherent Resolve and later U.S.-Iran combat operations.
F-22 RaptorFifth-generation stealth air-superiority fighterBuilt: Lockheed Martin; Boeing / United StatesThe F-22 Raptor is a U.S. fifth-generation stealth fighter built for air dominance with supercruise, integrated avionics, and internal weapons carriage. Although designed primarily for air-to-air combat, U.S. Air Force sources document its precision-strike role in Operation Inherent Resolve and its inclusion in the 2025 Operation Midnight Hammer strike package against Iran.
MQ-9 ReaperMedium-altitude long-endurance unmanned combat aerial vehicleBuilt: General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, Inc. / United StatesThe MQ-9 Reaper is a General Atomics medium-altitude, long-endurance remotely piloted aircraft built for persistent intelligence collection and precision strike. Larger and more powerful than the MQ-1 Predator, it combines satellite control, electro-optical and infrared sensors, laser designation, and weapons such as Hellfire missiles and guided bombs, making it a recurring U.S. and coalition platform in counterterrorism, maritime-security, and regional-strike operations.Category

AGM-158 JASSMAir-launched standoff cruise missileBuilt: Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control / United StatesThe AGM-158 Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missile is Lockheed Martin's low-observable, subsonic air-launched cruise missile family built to let bomber and fighter aircraft strike heavily defended, high-value targets from outside many air-defense envelopes. Its documented combat use includes baseline AGM-158A launches from B-1B bombers in the 2018 Syria missile strikes, AGM-158B use during Operation Inherent Resolve, and large-scale JASSM-family employment during Operation Epic Fury against Iran.
M142 HIMARSWheeled multiple rocket launcher and tactical missile launcherBuilt: Lockheed Martin / United StatesThe M142 HIMARS is a U.S.-built wheeled launcher that gives field artillery units a rapidly deployable precision-strike system for GMLRS rockets, ATACMS, and newer PrSM missiles. Its single-pod launcher trades the heavier M270 MLRS loadout for C-130 transportability and road mobility, making it useful for dispersed long-range fires in Ukraine, Syria, and U.S. operations against Iran.
