FS2004/FSX Junkers Ju 87B Stuka
If ever there was to be an effective weapon that could be termed as
being successful as well as deadly, it would have to be the Junkers
Ju87, known to Germans as the Sturzkampfbomber, and better known to the
English as a dive-bomber or better still a "Stuka". No other aircraft
can make claim to the number of ships sunk and also it ranks second to
the number of enemy tanks destroyed during times of warfare. The Junkers
Ju87 was an attacking aircraft. Normally carrying one 250 kg bomb (later
500 kg ) under the fuselage and up to four 50kg bombs under the wings, a
formation of Ju87 "Stuka" dive bombers became a deadly cocktail, flying
directly overhead their target, then dive bombing at an angle of almost
90 degrees. During the campaigns in Spain, Poland, the Low Countries
these deadly formations were devastating, but over the English Channel
during the Battle of Britain they could not compete against the superior
Hurricane and Spitfire and they ceased to become the attacking force
that they were so well known for, and became the victims themselves.
