ju 87
A World War II dive bomber made by German manufacturer Junkers & Co. It was first used by the Luftwaffe in 1936 and continued in service until 1943-44, operating throughout Europe, Africa, and the Mediterranean. Recognition features include an inverted gull wing, fixed landing gear with wheel fairings, three-bladed propeller and undernose air intake, braced tailplanes, and long 'greenhouse' canopy topped by a radio antenna.
The Ju-87 was crewed by a pilot and gunner/radio operator. Armament included 2 forward-firing machine guns for the pilot and a single 7.92mm machine gun for the gunner. The Stuka could also carry various bomb loads underwing or a pair of podded tank-busting cannon. It also carried sirens (called "Jericho Trumpets") on its landing gear which were effective psychological warfare weapons.
