I will illustrate with an example.
Suppose you had a list of Best Fighter Aircrafts in the world with the information on the Country that owns, Manufacturing Company, Stealth Capability Index, Length, Width, Weight, MAX Speed and Weapon Types.
All Aircrafts have the items in Bold above but vary in the Weapon Types. Meaning, The Aircraft can have “n” number of weapon types. The Items in Bold above is what I referred to as group of columns.
So, you would at the Top Level have Country and suppose it has 2 suppliers Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, and Lockheed supplied 2 Aircrafts and Grumman supplied one aircraft.
- USA

Is the above possible?
Please note that the above information is for example purposes only and not actual specification of the fighter aircrafts.
