no not unless you are talking about a old airplane. Of course the Russian Hun, the Apache and the Cobra all three have wings. They are not required for flight, but they are there. They are used to increase the ability to carry weapons. They also don't have wings because they have blades and paddles at the top which provide lift and a tail rotor to give it thrust and to control the pitch..
