A military aircraft is any fixed-wing or rotary-wing aircraft that is operated by a legal or insurrectionary armed service of any type.

Military aircraft can be either combat or non-combat:

Combat aircraft are designed to destroy enemy equipment using their own aircraft ordnance.

Combat aircraft are normally developed and procured only by military forces.

Non-combat aircraft are not designed for combat as their primary function, but may carry weapons for self-defense.

These mainly operate in support roles, and may be developed by either military forces or civilian organizations.
