Airfix 1/48 Scale Junkers Ju87R-2/B-2 Stuka Model Kit
Airfix Junkers Ju87R-2/B-2 Stuka The Junkers Ju 87 was a German dive bomber and ground-attack aircraft. Although usually associated with the Wehrmacht’s feared ‘Lightning War’ attacks at the beginning of WWII, the Ju87B Stuka was also a highly effective maritime strike bomber. Capable of performing precision dive bombing attacks against any Allied vessel, the Stuka took a heavy toll of shipping in the English Channel, North Africa and in the Mediterranean. The Stuka also saw service with the air forces of Italy, Romania, Bulgaria and Hungary, as well as remaining in Luftwaffe service throughout WWII. A long range version of the Ju 87B was also built, known as the Ju 87R. They were primarily intended for anti-shipping missions. The Ju 87R had a B-series airframe with an additional oil tank and fuel lines to the outer wing stations to permit the use of two 300 litres (79 US gal) standardised capacity under-wing drop tanks used by a wide variety of Luftwaffe aircraft.
