The Junkers Ju87 or Stuka was a German dive bomber and
ground-attack aircraft designed by Hermann Pohlmann and
first flew in 1935 and made its combat debut in 1937 with the
Luftwaffe’s Condor Legion during the Spanish Civil War.
It served the Axis forces in World War II. The aircraft was
easily identifiable by its inverted gull wings and fixed spatted undercarriage. Upon the leading edges of its faired main gear
legs were mounted the Jericho-Trompete wailing sirens,
becoming the propaganda symbol of German air power
and the blitzkrieg victories of 1939-1942. The Ju 87
operated with considerable success in the close air support
and anti-shipping at the outbreak of World War II.
With a wing span of 2286mm, Seagull’s version of the
legend shares an amazing presence with all it’s unique details
like dive brakes, semi-floating flaps and ailerons, dive siren,
tail bracing, balanced elevator detail, glass house cockpit with rear machine gun, and so much more.
As all other Seagull models, it is wrapped with the
Oracover and suitable for 38-50cc engines.
Beautifully produced and finished with superb flying
characteristics, this model is highly desirable and will definitely
be at the center of attention. |
