		The Junkers Ju 388 was a series of mainly abortive German developments of the Junkers Ju 88 during the Second World War and included a fighter - the Junkers Ju 388J; a bomber - the Junkers Ju 388K and a reconnaissance model - the Junkers Ju 388L.
		The Ju 86 was armed with three 7.92 mm MG 15 manually aimed machine-guns mounted in the nose, dorsal and retractable ventral positions and an internal bomb load of four 250 kg or sixteen 50 kg bombs.

	Junkers Ju 290 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Junkers Ju 290 was a long-range transport, maritime patrol aircraft and bomber used by the Luftwaffe late in World War II.
		The Junkers 290 was a direct development of the Junkers Ju 90 airliner, versions of which had been evaluated for military purposes.
		The "long legs" of the Ju 290 made it an excellent candidate for the Amerika Bomber project, and prototypes of an even longer-range version were ordered as the Junkers Ju 390.

		The Ju 288 was created as a contender for Reichsluftfahrtministerium's Bomber B project, a programme aimed at replacing the medium bombers in the Luftwaffe's inventory that were all based on designs of the early 1930s.
		The aircraft was an advanced scaled-up Junkers Ju 88, sharing its general layout and most of its fuselage and wings with extensions in various places.
		As these technical difficulties were being dealt with, the lack of a decisive strategic bombing doctrine within the Luftwaffe meant that the mission and purpose of the Ju 288 remained nebulous throughout its development.

		The Junkers Ju 287 was a flying testbed built to develop the technology required for a multi-engined jet bomber aircraft.
		The Ju 287 was intended to provide the Luftwaffe with a bomber that could avoid interception by outrunning enemy fighters.
		The first prototype was intended to evaluate the concept, and was cobbled together from the fuselage of a Heinkel He 177, the tail of a Junkers Ju 388, main undercarriage from a Junkers Ju 352, and nosewheels taken from crashed B-24 Liberators.

		The aircraft was an advanced, four-engined derivative of the highly successful Junkers Ju 88, sharing most of its fuselage and wings.
		This was the same engine layout used on the He 177, and the Ju 288 now showed the same problems that the Heinkel aircraft exhibited.

		The Ju 188 Rächer (Avenger) was a high-performance medium bomber from Junkers, the planned follow-on to the famed Ju 88 with better performance and payload.
		Although Junker's own Ju 288 was currently leading the contest, there was no delivery date on the engines and the Ju 88B project was re-submitted as a stop-gap measure.
		By 1942 it was becoming clear that the Ju 288 wasn't going to be ready any time soon, and at the same time the Ju 88's were increasingly at the mercy of a rapidly improving RAF and Soviet VVS.

		The resultant Ju 288, Ju 388, and Ju 488 did not look much alike, and in fact were separate distinct aircraft.
		The Ju 288 was a potent airframe with high hopes, but problems with hydraulics and electrical systems kept it from entering active service.

		It's speed and altitude performance was such that it was in much demand as a reconnaissance platform, a task it performed well until the end of the war, when most non-defensive aircraft were grounded due to lack of fuel.
		Thanks to the wholesale removal of records from the Junkers DEssau works by the US at the end of the war, much historical information has survived making detailed research into its aircraft much easier for the historian.
		The continual harassment by the state eventually led to the death of its founder, Hugo Junkers and the control of the works passing over to those who were more controlled by the Nazis.

		Originally a bomb additional load was planned by 5000 kg, which had to be substantially reduced however because of difficulties during the handling.
		When in the year 1943 many German bomber projects were painted, among them also the Ju 288, was further pursued the Ju 288 for the ground-combat engagement role using enormous single firing cannons like the equipment 104 Muenchhausen with 35.56 cm calibers.

		Among factories in which production seems to have ceased are the Messerschmitt 109 plants in Regensburg and the main Junkers assembly plants for JU-88/188 at Bernburg.
		General Arnold further pointed out, however, that this first-line strength may be only a shell, as the constant attrition of air battles and the destruction of production facilities has depleted the Luftwaffe's reserves to a dangerous extent.
		The new Junkers JU-288 has roughly similar characteristics, and is sufficiently different from the original JU-88 as to be classed as a new airplane.
