Airfix - Junkers Ju87B-1 Stuka - 1:48 (A07114)
Arguably one of the most distinctive aircraft of WWII, the Ju87B Stuka was a
highly effective dive and attack bomber, capable of delivering precision
bombing attacks, in support of the Germans ‘Lightning War’ concept. It also
specifically employed the use of screaming sirens, designed to spread fear
and panic amongst the enemy, both military and civilian.
Perhaps the most feared exponent of the Blitzkrieg phenomenon was the
dreaded Junkers Ju-87 Stuka, which could quite easily be described as the
first modern ‘terror weapon’. Designed specifically to instil fear and
confusion into both enemy troops and the population in general, the Stuka
was a highly effective, precision dive-bomber, which was used as a flying
propaganda machine for the Wehrmacht.
