All common vehicle parameters are supported, together with name, image, and notes.

Class parameters

Parameter	Field	Default
wingspan	Wingspan	Not specified
wing_area	Effective wing area	Not specified
cruise_speed	Cruising speed	Not specified
service_ceiling	Service ceiling	Not specified
critical_altitude	Engine critical altitude	Not specified
bypass_ratio	Bypass ratio	Not specified
thrust	Thrust	Not specified
acceleration	Maximum acceleration	Not specified
vtol	VTOL capability	Not specified
rain_protection	Rain Protection Type	Wipers
flight_spoilers	Flight Spoilers	Not specified
ground_lift_dump	Ground Lift Dump (GLD)	Not specified
retractable_landing_gear	Retractable Landing Gear	Not specified
landing_gear_type	Landing Gear Type	Not specified
leading_edge_flaps	Leading Edge Flaps	Not specified
trailing_edge_flaps	Trailing Edge Flaps	Not specified

Flight Spoilers and Ground Lift Dump (GLD) are separate capabilities. Record each independently. Use Yes or No for known presence/absence, and specify the landing-gear or flap type where known (for example, trailing_edge_flaps=Blown flaps). Omit unconfirmed values so they remain visibly marked.

Editing conventions

• Omit an unknown parameter entirely. Omitted specification fields display Not specified and place the article in Category:Vehicles needing specifications. An explicitly empty assignment (for example, |weight=) overrides the default and remains blank; remove the assignment to restore the marker.
• Use None, 0, or Not applicable only when that is known, rather than when a value has not been researched.
• Supply units and operating conditions in the value, including [[CR]] for prices. This preserves distinctions such as kg versus MT, km/h versus m/s, and empty versus fully loaded performance. Units are not appended automatically.
• Parameter names are case-sensitive. Standard wiki links are supported in values. Use {{!}} for a literal pipe outside a wiki link.
• Existing images can stay outside the specification table. The optional image parameter accepts a complete file link, for example |image=[[File:A-4.png|thumb|right|400px]], including the filename extension.
• name defaults to the article title; notes adds free-form notes below the table. These optional parameters do not generate missing-field markers.
