Junkers JU-87B Stuka.
Item Number: 1002

Early in World War 2, the world was stunned by the effective dive
bombing tactics of the JU 87 Stuka. First tested in the Spanish
Civil War, it went through considerable design changes before
emerging as the formidable bomber of the early 40?s. For two
years, this plane was one of the most successful weapons of the
Luftwaffe and was used to spearhead the German drives into enemy
territory. The JU 87 saw much service on the Russian front as an
anti-tank weapon and was also used in the African desert on the
Malta raids and in the Italian campaigns. Although considered
obsolete within two years after the beginning of the WW-2, the JU
87 went on to see action until the end of the war and enjoyed
the distinction of being, besides the American Douglas Dauntless,
the only mass-produced dive bomber of WW-2
