	Stab (Luftwaffe designation) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		During World War II, the suffix Stab was used in German military aeronautics to help distinguish between the State Major in Flight (direct air command) of each Gruppe (Group) or between Geschwadern (Wings) inside German Luftwaffe units.
		These air command wing or squadron units used the green colour of their aircraft and individual identification letters to distinguish their aircraft from the rest of air units in same sections.
		An airplane codified "A", green in colour, with D/St.III/St.G.77, indicated it was a member of Stab III of Stukageschwader (Dive bomber squadron) No. 77.

	Encyclopedia :: encyclopedia : Luftwaffe (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		Although Luftwaffe simply means "air force" in the German language, some English speakers prefer to refer to Germany's modern air force as the German Air Force to avoid potential confusion with the Nazi-era air force, since this force is often referred to as the Luftwaffe in English.
		The Luftwaffe had the ideal opportunity to test its pilots, aircraft and tactics in the Spanish Civil War of 1936–1939, when the Condor Legion was sent to Spain in support of the anti-Republican government revolt led by Francisco Franco.
		Amongst the designers sent to Russia was Dr. Hans Wocke, the man who designed the world's first forward-swept-wing jet bomber, the Junkers Ju 287, the first prototype of which, the Ju 287V1, had flown during the war on test flights.

		He was, and still is, considered by many of the Luftwaffe aces to be the premier fighter pilot of the Luftwaffe-all before the age of twenty-three.
		This first volume describes the efforts of the Luftwaffe and Kriegsmarine to design and produce carrier-systems for the nuclear weapons the scientists were developing.
		With its forward swept wings, the design was a critical milestone in the annals of aviation technology and made the Ju 287 the first swept-wing design in the world.

		The result was perhaps the Luftwaffe's greatest wartime failure, ranking right up there on the top of the disaster scale along with the Heinkel He 177.
		The Luftwaffe had originally anticipated that the first Me 210s would enter service in mid 1941, and assembly lines had been laid down at both the Augsburg and Regensburg Messerschmitt plants, and plans had been made for the Messerschmitt plant at Braunschweig to switch from Bf 110 to Me 210 production.
		However, even the top brass in the Luftwaffe eventually had to admit by the end of 1941 that the Me 210 as it currently existed was totally unsuitable for issue to operational units.

		The heavy fighter units that had yet to receive Me 110s were designated as per ordinary Jagdgruppen, but had 100 added to their number.
		There were any number of exceptions to this rule, both before and after war broke out (transport, night fighter, reconnaissance, and maritime patrol formations being subject to their own rules throught out the war) of which I only propose to discuss a few.
		The highest level of command was the squadra or zona aerea territoriale as it was known early in the war, and these controlled all operations within their area or responsibility, much like a German luftflotte.

		The Luftwaffe themselves considered that the Stuka was virtually invincable, but this was true only after air superiority was achieved.
		The ju 87D-3 had extra armour protection for more of a ground attack role, and an odd experimental version of the Ju 87D-3 had a pod under each wing, both capable of carrying two persons and intended to be used to drop agents behind enemy lines.
		The pods were designed to be relesed in a shallow dive and to descend by parachute, but it is not known if flight trials or releases ever took place.

		With its pilots, such as Adolf Galland, becoming household names for the successes in the skies, the Luftwaffe was pivotal both to the early successes wrought by Germany in the war during the Blitzkrieg assaults on Poland and western Europe.
		The project soon deviated far from the original Fw 190 concept and as an honor to the designer it was designated the Ta 152.
		More powerful engines and a number of design changes saw this aircraft produced from 1943 to 1944 under the designation of Me 410, and as such the type gave an excellent accounting of itself in service with the Luftwaffe.

		Ironically, while the Spitfire was upgraded in a similar fashion through the war, the basic Supermarine design proved more adaptable to increased horsepower, armor, firepower, and weight, and later model Spitfires like the Mark IX were more than a match for contemporary Bf-109s.
		A Luftwaffe pilot would land his Bf-109G at RAF Manston by mistake later in the war and allow comparison of the Messerschmitt against current Allied types, showing it to have few advantages and many disadvantages relative to the Spitfire Mark IX and XIV, as well as the P-51C Mustang.
		The "Bf-109G-8", introduced in late 1943, was a reconnaissance fighter modification of the Bf-109G-6, with a camera in the rear fuselage, a gun camera in the left wing, and the twin cowling guns deleted.

	The Focke-Wulf Ta152H-1
		The designation change from Fw to TA was to honor Kurt Tank who had designed the extremely successful Fw 190 series.
		The development of the TA 152 came about as the Luftwaffe saw the threat of high-altitude bombers and reconnaissance aircraft which could be fielded by the allies and which would prove difficult, if not impossible, by current Luftwaffe interceptors to engage.
		Such was Tank's sway that he was able to go around the usual aircraft naming scheme and his two models, the Ra-2 and the Ra-3, became the TA 152B and the TA 152H respectively.
