The Air Force of a nation usually has more aircraft than the other services combined. If the Navy has aircraft carriers, they need airplanes that can take off and land on those vessels. If the Navy does not have aircraft carriers, they usually have a few land based aircraft. Most Army's have helicopters (aka rotating wing aircraft) and some fixed-wing aircraft. The Marine Corps have a combination of helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft. The Coast Guard have their own fleet of land based aircraft. The Air Force is the main users of military aircraft, but, not the only branch to use them. Generally speaking the civilian police/law enforcement agencies do not use military aircraft, except on special occasions.

Military aircraft are designed to destroy the enemy's military aircraft and (sometimes) their civil aircraft. They also preform bombing tasks as well as a few non-combat tasks. Civil aircraft are mainly transports and crop sprayers that don't do much fighting. Military aircraft are designed to fulfill a multitude of roles that are specified by the Armed forces that will be using these aircraft. These roles include Air attack as well as air support and defence of other military assets. Transport and surveillence are also key roles that military aircraft fulfill. Civil aircraft are designed to perform commercial transport as well as personal use and sports roles.
