<br />
'''Fire Support''' is a combat role performed by certain models of fighters, both [[aerospace fighter|aerospace]] and [[conventional fighter|conventional]], with a primary mission of support of air-to-air engagements from a stand-off distance. They may also perform heavy ground support missions.<ref name=ASCp137>''Alpha Strike Companion'', p. 137, "Fire Support"</ref><ref name=COp58>''Campaign Operations'', p. 58, "Fire Support"</ref><br />

==Description==<br />
Fire support craft are medium or heavy fighters performing distance-based support in aerial engagements, as they are equipped with long-range weapons. They have enough speed to maintain position with allied [[dogfighter]]s ''en route'' to an engagement area and then provide fire support for their allies against the opposition. Because some of the heavy fighters that are built for the fire support role also are equipped with hardpoints, they may be tasked with dropping ordnance on ground targets for heavy support missions.<ref name=ASCp137/><ref name=COp58/><br />
