Synopsis- Free extras for modelers, including decals and masking foil This is the fourth volume in the Junkers Ju 87 series by Kagero, and focuses on the variants and their combat during the Battle of Britain, with color artwork and illustrations. The Junkers Ju 87 or Stuka (from Sturzkampfflugzeug, "dive bomber") was a two-seat (pilot and rear gunner) German ground-attack aircraft. Designed by Hermann Pohlmann, the Stuka first flew in 1935 and made its combat debut in 1936 as part of the Luftwaffe's Condor Legion during the Spanish Civil War. The aircraft was easily recognizable by its inverted gull wings, fixed spatted undercarriage and its infamous Jericho-Trompete ("Jericho Trumpet") wailing siren, becoming the propaganda symbol of German air power and the "Blitzkrieg" victories of 1939-1942. The Stuka's design included several innovative features, including automatic pull-up dive brakes under both wings to ensure that the plane recovered from its attack dive even if the pilot blacked out from the high acceleration. Although sturdy, accurate, and very effective, the Ju 87 was vulnerable to modern fighter aircraft, like many other dive bombers of the war, particularly during the conflict over the skies and seas of the British Channel. About the Series Monographs is a series focusing on an individual type of aircraft. Each monograph contains descriptions of the aircraft's origins, its variants and combat history. Each volume includes several hundred archive photographs, technical scale drawings and color profile artworks, with free extras for modelers, including decals and masking foil., * Free extras for modelers, including decals and masking foil This is the fourth volume in the Junkers Ju 87 series by Kagero, and focuses on the variants and their combat during the Battle of Britain, with color artwork and illustrations.
