This is a 3D comparison of 2021 attack helicopter fleet strength by country.
An attack helicopter is a helicopter armed with the main function of an attack aircraft, with the offensive ability to attack ground targets such as enemy infantry, military vehicles, and fortifications. Due to their heavy armament, they are sometimes called helicopter gunships.
Attack helicopters can use weapons including autocannons, machine guns, rockets, and anti-tank guided missiles like the AGM-114 Hellfire. Some attack helicopters are also capable of carrying air-to-air missiles, although primarily for self-defense purposes against other low-flying helicopters and light combat aircraft.
