	Junkers Ju 87 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Junkers Ju 87 or Stuka was the best known Sturzkampfflugzeug (German: dive bomber) in World War II, instantly recognisable by its inverted gull wings, fixed undercarriage and infamous wailing siren (though these were only fitted to a few aircraft, the extra drag being unwelcome on an already obsolete aircraft).
		Hans-Ulrich Rudel was the most notable Stuka ace, and in fact the most highly decorated German soldier of the war.
		When the aircraft was reasonably close to the target, a light on the contact altimeter came on to indicate the bomb-release point, usually at a minimum height of 450 m (1,500 ft).

	Stuka Dive Bomber
		The Ju-87 Stuka dive bomber was the airborne element of the German Blitzkrieg
		The Stuka pilot had excellent view from the cockpit and special indicators which conveniently informed him of his dive angle and when he reached the optimal bomb release altitude, allowing him to focus entirely on precise aiming during the fast steep dive.
		The Stuka was the best and most precise dive bomber of World War 2, so much that the Luftwaffe headquarters insisted that even their heavy bombers should also be able to operate as dive bombers, a stubborn requirement that caused great delays in the development of much needed heavy bombers for the Luftwaffe.

	The Junkers Ju-87 Stuka
		The Luftwaffe's enthusiasm for the Stuka increased accordingly.
		The Stuka was part of the new "Blitzkrieg (Lightning War)" tactics developed by German generals such as Heinz Guderian: fast-moving armored columns would move rapidly through enemy defenses, communicating with Stukas over radios for the removal of obstacles to the advance.
		By 1943 the Stuka was clearly on the defensive on all fronts, unable to survive in the face of effective fighter opposition.

		Which stuka model had retractable gear, I know there were some because I have this photocopy of some sideviews of some ju 87 but it doesn't specify.
		The stukas that didnt have their fairings on were usually the G's, with the cannons.
		Stuka refers to any dive-bomber so the name was probably coined by the RLM and not Junkers.

	Robert Taylor Stuka
		With its banshee-like wailing siren, the Stuka pilots were dispersed to all Fronts to wreak havoc and destruction.
		Though vulnerable to fighter attack, the Stuka enjoyed success wherever the Luftwaffe maintained control of the air, and it was one of the few aircraft to serve throughout World War II.
		One of the most outstanding Stuka leaders of World War II, Kurt Kuhlmey was Staffelkapitän of 1./St.G.1 at the outbreak of war, serving in the Polish, Norwegian and French campaigns, before being transferred to the attack on Malta.

		These were, in most cases, raids by low-flying attack bombers which swept roads with machine-gun fire and bombs, depended on firepower, speed and whole sale demoralization for their getaway with a minimum of trouble from anti-aircraft fire.
		Stuka pilots rely on their swift descent to avoid anti-aircraft shells, on quick pullouts and fast getaways to save their skins from machine-gun fire.
		Germany's Stuka is an ugly, husky, single-motored monoplane with an upswept and backswept wing.

	Stuka
		The "Stuka", or Ju87B, was a much feared weapon in the German armoury against Crete and the Allied Naval forces.

		The role of the Stuka was that of dive-bomber, and the single bomb can be seen under the fuselage.

		However, in the summer of 1940 the lie was put to the Stuka myth by catostrophic losses to British fighters in the Battle of Britian.

	Stuka Junkers Ju-87 WWII German Dive Bomber
		It is a name that might with considerably greater aptness have been bestowed upon a much less attractive warplane of a decade earlier; but the Junkers Ju 87 gave rise to a name of its own that was to have far more terrifying connotations to millions of Europeans.
		For the Ju 87 was a Sturzkampfflugzeug, the German word for dive-bomber, and with deadly effect it was to personify the sterm 'Stuka' for the rest of its career.
		The Stukas then faced the fighters of the RAF in the Battle of Britain, and suffered accordingly.

		The Stuka variant used against Crete was the Ju87-B of which pre-production examples were flying in late 1938, so it was being produced in volume by 1941.
		The main external differences between the D and the B variants were the smoother nose cowling on the D, and the flatter radiator cowl under the engine.
		In Poland the dreaded Stukas smashed a path for the German panzers, and they repeated the technique even more forcefully in the invasion through the Low Countries during May 1940.

	Junkers Ju. 87 "Stuka"
		The Stuka, short for Sturzkampfflugzeug (the word for dive bomber), was the real protagonist of Germany's early success during the first two years of the war.

		The Stuka remained in front-line service until the last day of the war.

	Junkers Stuka
		It was given the name Stuka after the German word for dive bomber (Sturzkampfflugzeug).
		The Ju 87 (the Stuka), a single-engined dive-bomber, was probably the easiest enemy aircraft in the war to shoot down because it dived straight and pulled up straight.
		Everything becomes blended together; along with the howling sirens of the Stukas in their dives, the bombs whistle and crack and burst.

		The first in the series of Matt's "modern" Stukas and the first plane to bring Matt a 500+ score at a regional contest.
		Missing here are his Stuka 97 and later models, and, also, an earlier Don Still Stuka that departed this life when the leadouts broke (.025's, BAD idea) in the middle of an overhead eight during an OTS contest in Indianapolis.
		Two prototypes were built and both are still in flying condition, although the first prototype has so many flights on it that the belcrank wore out and the controls got "sloppy" enough that it has been relegated to engine test bed status.
