The attack aircraft of the GSAF is designed to attack targets on the ground and are often deployed as close air support for, and in proximity to, Sokalan ground forces. The proximity to friendly forces requires precision strikes from these aircraft that are not always possible with bomber aircraft. Their role is tactical rather than strategic, operating at the front of the battle rather than against targets deeper in the enemy's rear.
