- (Aircraft carrier "84")
AFAIK, the real USN doesn't have a modern aircraft carrier with hull
number 84. In WWII, the USN had a Casablanca-class escort aircraft carrier
CVE-84 USS Shamrock Bay. She was launched on 4 February 1944, used as an
aircraft transport ship in the Atlantic Ocean in 1944, took part in the
Battles of Iwo Jima and Okinawa, and was scrapped in 1959.

On second thought, the aircraft carrier in Zero Hour looks IMO more
like the ARMD-01 and Prometheus in Old Macross than the aircraft carriers of
the real USN. 8D.
The Paladin is not based on the real life artillery,
it is just an in-game MBT. Completely made up, as are some
things. They were designed with the thought that these
units COULD exist, not that they necessarily do. We do
know that the Rangers, Pathfinders, Comanche, Raptors,
F-117s, MiGs, Technicals, etc. are based on the real units.

Para Drop
C-130 Hercules. US transport plane.
Pathfinder
Scout sniper, USMC (United States Marine Corps).
Motto: "Semper fidelis", Latin for "Always faithful"
(sometimes shortened as "Semper fi", or as the phonetically
similar "Seventy five"). 8D
Patriot Missile
MIM-104 Patriot. US ground-launched SAM.
From Wavehawk (Saturday, 2003.05.31):
The real Patriot missile is much larger (per scale),
and is usually mounted on trucks rather than as stationary
defense.
Ranger
75th Ranger Regiment, USA (United States Army).
Motto: "Sua sponte", Latin for "Of their own accord".
From Richard Parry (Sunday, 15 June 2003):
The pic of the US Rangers on the command bar is a
soldier with an M16A2 with an M203 grenade launcher
underneath. Rangers now-a-days usually have M4 carbines,
but some still have M16A2's, although many are being, or
have been, replaced by the M16A4. Pretty much an A2 with
the flattop upper receiver made for mounting optical
sights (scopes).
From Wavehawk (Saturday, 2003.05.31):
The gun image shown on the screen (when Rangers are
selected, to toggle between Flashbang and Rifle) is the FN
M249 SAW, a light Squad Automatic Weapon. Although the
Rangers use the M249 as their support weapon, majority of
them still pack either M16A2/A3/A4 rifles or the M4 Carbine.
Motto is: "Rangers Lead The Way!"

Later (2003.09.30):
The real Raptor isn't navalised. That is, unlike the
real YF-32 and F-35 JSF (Joint Strike Fighter), the real
Raptor can't operate from an aircraft carrier.
Rocket Pods
AGM-114 Hellfire. US air-launched AGM (Air-to-Ground Missile).
- (Spirit) [Zero Hour]
B-2 Spirit. US strategic low-observable bomber.
- Stealth Bomber / Stealth Fighter
F-117 Nighthawk. US low-observable attacker.
- Stealth Comanche [Zero Hour]
RAH-66 Comanche. US recon/attack helicopter.
General Malcolm "Ace" Granger only.

Tomahawk Missile Launcher
BGM-109 Tomahawk. US ground-launched surface-to-surface
cruise missile.
TOW Missile
M220 TOW (Tube-launched, Optically tracked,
Wire-guided) missile. US ground-launched ATM (Anti-Tank
Missile).
From chris lakin (2003.03.08):
The battle drone you can attach to US tanks is
probably a Cypher 2 drone, made by Sikorsky.

From Wavehawk (Saturday, 2003.05.31):
Specifically, the FIM-92 'Basic' Stinger, as given to
Afghanistan by the US during the Russo-Afghan wars. The
version seen in use with the GLA are Man Portable Air
Defense (MANPADS) Stingers. Vehicle-mounted Stingers have a
slightly different launcher - though they fire the same
missile, AFAIK the launchers on vehicles can't be removed
and used by infantry.
The GLA are smart in setting up Stinger sites. US Army
rules for using the MANPADS Stinger has one spotter and one
shooter: Stinger units work much like Sniper teams.
4.3 USA (United States of America)
A10 Strike
A-10/OA-10 Thunderbolt II. US attacker.
- AC-130 Spectre Gunship [Zero Hour]
AC-130H Spectre, AC-130U Spooky. US gunship for close
air support, air interdiction, armed reconnaissance, and
force protection.
The real AC-130 Spectre/Spooky, based on the C-130
Hercules, has four propellor engines mounted on its wings,
instead of two jet engines mounted on its tail fin.
- Advanced Training
Steyr AUG (Armee Universal Gewehr, "Universal Army
Rifle"). Austrian 5.56x45 mm bullpup battle rifle.

The purpose of this guide is to give you a reference of the air to air
capabilities of the aircrafts in Generals. I made this guide because I
like air to air combat in Generals and I thought a quick reference
might be useful. This guide only focuses on airplanes that are built at
airfields. This guide also assumes that all aircraft upgrades have been
purchased for all teams (i.e. you and your opponent(s) have all bought
all possible upgrades: LGM's, Black Napalm etc.). Do not email me
asking me what airplane can shoot down a B2 Bomber, A-10, Spectre
Gunship.... quickly.
