	The '''Fighta-Bommer''' is an [[Ork]] multirole aircraft that is the more badass cousin of the [[Dakkajet]], and also the beefy older brother of the smaller [[Fighta]]. They were, at least in the older fluff, the most common Ork flyer. [[Boss Zagstruk]] has his own personal one, ''Da Vulcha'', for which he named his famous unit of [[Stormboyz]]. Entire squadrons were launchable from [[Terror Ship]]s in [[Battlefleet Gothic]]. Hell, even the entire [[Deff Skwadron]] consisted of Fighta-Bommas.

	At least it'll definitely do some nice damage before it goes. At 170 points (in 7th Edition) it's not horribly expensive. It gets 6 [[Supa-Rokkits]] (S8 AP3) as standard, and these can be exchanged for [[Grot_Bomms\|Grot Bomms]] at 15 points a pop or regular [[Grenades_&_Explosives#Bomm\|Bomms]] for free (both S6 AP4, just difference in blast size). But it shines through its [[Awesome\|''three'' '''''Twin-Linked''''']] [[Big Shoota]]s, [[Awesome\|including one mounted on a turret.]] Holy hell, not many other flyers outside of Apocalypse can put out this much dakka for so cheap. Granted you won't be taking down tanks with them, but you can tear through light infantry and maybe put some holes in small vehicles. With [[Just as Planned\|Deep Strike you can drop in]], lay a Grot Bomm pieplate down, and pepper what you can with [[Big_Shoota\|Big Shoota]] shots. With access to Fighter Ace and Flyboss, you'll be even more likely to put some damage on those gits with a higher BS. Even a +1 to Front Armor from Shiny Armor is kinda helpful, making you Front Armor 12. Keyword ''kinda.''		At least it'll definitely do some nice damage before it goes.

	Because of the silly Soulstorm engine treating all flyers as vehicles that ignore terrain and melee attacks, Da Bomma turned into a helicopter.

It also has stupidly long range and causes more disruption than [[Basilisk Artillery Gun\|Basilisks]] due to its accuracy, making an excellent weapon for sending lots of puny gits flying, or bashing a base to bits from the fog of WAAAAGH!

			== Battlefleet Gothic Armada 1 & 2 ==

			In Battlefleet Gothic Armada 1 & 2, Ork Fighta-Bommers are the second slowest fighters in the game. However, they, like their name suggests are unique in the sense that they both function as a fighter and a bomber. What this means is that Fighta-Bommers have a unique attribute of dealing 0.3 seconds of hull damage to enemy ships. The only other faction that does this are the [[Necron]] [[Doom Scythe]]s.
