The junkers 87 stuka was a single engine tail wheel two man dive bomber, it had a gunner in the back and forward guns as well. The stuka was feared at the star of the war for its ability to fly low and drop very accurate bombs, it was very useful in germany’s blitzkrieg attacks against France. It did how ever have some weaknesses the main one being it’s speed, it would require a fighter escort as so it wouldnt be ripped to shreds by enemy fighters, eventually the stuka showed it’s age and was sent to fight in north africa instead of europe. CONTROLS normal flight controls, VTOL for flaps, trim is trim, no gear, ag 1 to activate gunner, note he can only get good hits when the plane is level. thank you for coming to my ted talk

    I think it's good that the gun pods and bombs have been reproduced! I think it's a good aircraft for ground attacks :-)
