The Junkers Ju-87 - better known as the "Stuka" (short for Sturzkampfflugzeug, or dive-bomber) - is arguably one of the most famous aircraft of the Second World War and remains the most successful model of its type to this day. Featuring distinctive inverted gull wings and a characteristic dive siren, the aircraft saw service throughout the war across almost every theater of operations, proving highly effective - particularly during its initial years of deployment. Nearly 6,000 of these aircraft rolled off the Junkers production lines by 1944.
Packed with countless details and period photographs, this volume is undoubtedly the definitive book on the Stuka currently available.
