gunships
Heavily armed aircraft
Gunships are military aircraft—typically helicopters or fixed-wing planes—heavily armed for ground attack and close air support.
The term evokes images of Vietnam-era helicopters bristling with machine guns and rockets: The gunships circled overhead, providing cover for ground troops.
In gaming, gunship often describes any heavily armed aerial vehicle.
