An Air Unit is any Unit which can travel through the Air. Air Units can travel across any type of Terrain without movement penalty, though they recieve no defensive cover either.

The majortiy of Air Units are produced at Airports, the only exception being Seaplanes, which are produced on Carriers. Air units use some fuel every day to stay in flight and will crash without fuel.

There are two categories of air units: helicopters and planes. Planes fly at a higher altitude than helicopters, so units that can attack helicopters may not be able to attack planes (for example, Battle Copters cannot attack Fighters). However, units built specifically for anti-air purposes (Fighters, Anti-Air, and Missiles) will always be able to attack planes.
