		The success of the Ju 87 also contained the seeds of a disaster for the Luftwaffe, because it began to require that all its new bombers would be able to execute dive bombing attacks, including heavy mediums such as the Do 217 and heavy bombers such as the He 177.
		The Ju 87A did not see combat, with the exception of three aircraft which were sent to Spain during the civil war, but it was important in the development of the automatic bombing system of the Ju 87.
		But the contribution of the Ju 87 to the attack on Britain was brief, and in fact mainly limited to the attacks on shipping in the channel, during the initial stages.

		The Ju 87G was essentially a conversion of the long-span D-5, and aircraft of this type were quite successful in knocking out Soviet tanks along the Eastern Front until the appearance of better-class Soviet fighter opposition in the autumn of 1944.

	Junkers Ju 87 History
		With the huge success of the Junkers Ju 87 dive bomber in the early days of World War II (the Battle of Britain did not yet happened at this time), it is no big surprise that the "Stuka" was selected as the primary dive bombers to be used on German aircraft carriers.
		The Junkers Ju 87C-1 was an adapted version of the Junkers Ju 87B-1 which was build between 1938 and 1940.
		Therefore, the Ju87D was chosen as the new carrier bomber, in the role of the dive bomber and as a torpedo bomber.

	Ju 87
		The Ju 87 was designed for ground attack, and was used extensively to hunt tanks, anti-aircraft positions, and bomb just about any target.
		On the other hand, the Ju 87 was very heavy, had bad handling and poor defence capabilities, making it an easy target for allied fighters (I’ve heard a British pilot say it was like “turkey-shooting”).

	WW2 Warbirds: the Junkers Ju 87 Stuka - Frans Bonné
		The Ju 87 V2 was already nearing completion at the time of the crash of the V1, but was halted to resolve the cause of the crash.
		The result that was based on the Ju 87B, the Ju 87C, had manually folded outer wings, catapult attachments, an arrestor hook, flotation equipment, and a jettisonable landing gear in case the aircraft had to ditch into the sea.
		The latter was chosen, and the resulting Ju 87D-5 had extended outer wings, resulting in a wing span of 49 ft 2.5 inch (15,00 m) with an aspect ratio of 6,67 and an area of 362.76 sq ft (33,70 m²).

		Like its fighter counterpart, the Ju 87 also had to soldier on until the very end of the war, by which time it was totally outclassed.
		The Ju 87 was the Nazi's original terror weapon, and was even fitted with a siren to cause panic as it dived down to release its bombs.
		The Junkers Ju 88 is considered to be the Luftwaffe's most versatile aircraft, being used in many varieties, each specialized in a role such as fast bomber, dive bomber, torpedo bomber, night fighter, ground attack aircraft or reconnaissance plane.

		It kept some of the features of the earlier Ju 87, such as the cranked (gull) wing and two man crew, but added retractable landing gear and a very novel reversible vertical tail.
		The main landing gear was housed in a bulge at the junction of the wing where the angle of the wing changed, and retracted to the rear (also rotating 90 degrees to lay flat under the wings).
		Although windtunnel models and even a full-sized mock-up was built, the project was canceled due to the fact that the projected performance was not that much of an improvement from the older Ju 87, and also that fighter-bombers such as the Fw 190F series could do the job as well as specialized dive bombers.

	Ju 87 Stuka
		Stuka is actually a German abbreviation for dive-bomber (Sturzkampfflugzeuge), but became the nickname of the Ju 87 through propaganda accounts of its decisive role in the defeat of Poland.
		The first Ju 87, the Anton, entered service in two years earlier than that with three dispatched to Spain to experiment with dive-bombing techniques under live-fire conditions.
		The D-2 sub model was designed as a dedicated glider tug with a strengthened rear fuselage although almost any Ju 87 could be fitted with the appropriate hardware.

	::Junkers 87::
		The Junkers 87 first saw action in the Blitzkrieg attack on Poland in September 1939.
		In the initial phases of the war, the Stuka proved to be extremely effective at pin point bombing of a target.
		By diving nearly directly onto its target, the Ju 87 could all but guarantee a direct hit and its tell-tale gull-wings gave it this ability to dive at such a steep angle.

		Stuka, the word itself being a contraction of the German term “Sturkampfflugzeug” (diving battle aircraft; the generic term for all dive bombers), became a household word on both sides of the war, though by 1939, the term specifically implied the type Ju 87.

		Junkers Ju 87 Stukageschwader of North Africa and the Mediterranean
		The Ju 87 Stuka was the most feared weapon in the German arsenal in the first year of World War 2, the Luftwaffe using it to deadly effect during the Blitzkrieg between September 1939 and June 1940.
		Although vulnerable to the enemy fighters due to its moderate speed in level flight and general lack of manoeuvrability, the Ju 87 nevertheless soon came to symbolise the might of Nazi Germany as the mere handful of Stukageschwader supporting the Wehrmacht rampaging out of the Fatherland took a heavy toll of the Allied forces.

	Junkers Ju 87 Kanonvogel Review by Brett Green (Hasegawa 1/32)
		Accurate; robust parts breakdown; crisply recessed panel lines and subtle lines of rivets; raised surface detail where appropriate; well detailed including separate aileron and flap actuators; parts included for G-1 and G-2 variants; very thin and clear canopy parts; engineered for more variants in the future; no inserts.
		I was excited at the prospect of a new, big family of Stukas, but I admit to being a little disappointed that the G was first in line.
		In fact, I only added the Ju 87G as an afterthought to a couple of other kits that I was ordering from Japan.
