 PlanetSide PC review at games xtreme
The only air vehicles currently in the game are an anti-tank aircraft comparable to an A-10 Warthog (the Reaver), a nimble and lightly armored dogfighting aircraft (the Mosquito), and a large dropship which can carry an entire squad and one vehicle (the Galaxy).
In the end, Planetside is a really fun game that lacks a certain amount of replayability and also suffers somewhat from the fact that it's a subscription-based game.
The game mechanics, however, will be alien to most FPS players: your weapons seem to be rather weak and numbers are much more important than individual skill.

A-10 WARTHOG and then an AC-130U to kill everything in the area including tanks!
Even if it has been said but it is the A-10 hands down just due to the massive 30mm cannon of the nose of the beast and the turbine engines can be totally blown of the plane and it will still fly home.

Designated the “Thunderbolt II,” but more affectionately known as the “Warthog,” the A-10 is among the most lethal and most resilient aircraft to enter the force.
The A-10 is the first aircraft designed specifically for close air support and can survive direct hits from armor-piercing and high explosive projectiles up to 23mm.

In fact, the A-10 never would have been built had not the Air Force believed the Army was trying to steal its close air support role -- and thus millions of dollars from its budget -- by building the Cheyenne helicopter.
Until the A- 10 was built in the 1970's, the Air Force used old, underpowered aircraft to provide close air support.
The upgrades give A-10 pilots an "unbelievable" increase in situational awareness, along with a reduced workload, said Maj. Trey Rawls, a pilot with Eglin's 40th Flight Test Squadron who commanded the aircraft during its first flight last week.
