- General purpose aircraft - British 1920s and 1930s term for a multi-role aircraft used for light bombing, observation, training and sometimes as a fighter.
- Ground attack - also known as attack bombers, shturmovik and schlachtflugzeug - light and medium bombers used in a tactical role. Often armoured against ground fire.
- Heavy bomber - subjective description of size compared to contemporary types - definition varies by country and era, and reclassification as larger aircraft enter service is common. The German World War I designations grossflugzeuge (large aircraft) and reisenflugzeuge (giant aircraft) are analogous.
- Interdictor - bombers designed to attack targets behind the enemy front lines, with the intention of preventing forces and material reaching the battlefront.
- Level bomber - opposite of a dive bomber, aircraft flies at a constant altitude while dropping bombs. Term only current during late 1930s and early 1940s
- Light bomber - subjective description of size compared to contemporary types - definition varies by country and era, and in general used from 1920s to 1950s. Often single or two seat single engine propeller powered aircraft.
- Master Bomber - marked targets with smoke and flares during World War 2 for other bombers to aim for. Sometimes referred to as a Pathfinder.
- Medium bomber - subjective description of size compared to contemporary types - definition varies by country and era.
- Minelayer - aircraft used to deploy minefields - can be nearly any type of bomber.
- Night Bomber - bomber designed for making attacks at night when intercepting fighters are at a disadvantage.
- Maritime reconnaissance/Maritime patrol/Patrol bomber - used to control sealanes - can usually attack ships and in later examples, submarines. Most modern examples are converted transports.
- Schnellbomber - high speed bomber, used speed to avoid interception, however increases in speed of intercepting fighter usually makes these obsolete quickly.
- Stealth bomber - bomber designed and equipped to make detection by radar and infra-red devices difficult.
- Strategic bomber - bomber used to destroy targets having a long term strategic impact - such as industrial production or transportation.
- Strike fighter - similar to ground attack or fighter-bomber and may have minimal air to air combat capabilities.
- Tactical bomber - bomber used to destroy targets in direct support of ground operations.
- Torpedo bomber - bomber whose primary weapon is a torpedo. First examples appeared during World War I, term rare since 1960s when other weapons became available. Related types include torpedo-fighter (similar to fighter bomber) and torpedo-dive bomber.
- Ural bomber - early 1930s German long range bomber program.
- V bomber - series of 3 heavy strategic jet bombers produced by the British in the 1950s.
