The main model

Ju87A

In the spring of 1937, the pre-production Ju87A began production, and the A-1 was equipped with a Jumo210Ca engine; A-2 Jumo210Da engine,

By the end of 1938 a total of 262 aircraft were produced.

Ju87B

It was the standard model at the beginning of World War II and was equipped with a more powerful Jumo 211 engine. Horning air horns are specially installed on the landing gear to increase the psychological attack. At the beginning of World War II, the terrifying screams emitted by the Ju87 when it dived terrified the enemy soldiers and civilians, and the effect was obvious. However, during the Battle of Britain, this air whistle, which affected the speed of the aircraft, had to be removed. Otherwise, the Ju87 became a target for the British Air Force.

Ju87C

A carrier-based attack aircraft specially designed for the refinement of the German aircraft carrier "Zeppelin", the outer section of the wing can be folded. However, the "Zeppelin" aircraft carrier was never completed, so it was used as a land-based aircraft.

Ju87R

Long-range type, designed to attack ships at sea. The Ju87R, deployed in the Scandinavian countries, once played an important role in attacking Allied North Sea transport fleets.

Ju87D

A modification of the engine mounting position was redesigned. engine changed: Jumo211J / P type; The propeller was changed to: VS-11 type. There are 7 types from D1 to D7. The D7 is a night fighter equipped with radar and night flight equipment.

Ju87E

A modification of Ju87B, which was not manufactured.

Ju87G

The ultimate model. It is an anti-tank attack aircraft, equipped with two 37mm BK37 machine guns, equipped with tungsten core armor-piercing shells, and the muzzle velocity of 850m/s, attacking the tank from the rear and upper part of the tank, and the effect is very satisfactory. The test flight took place in March 1943, but the additional armor made the aircraft heavier and dangerous for new pilots, and only a few ace pilots achieved satisfactory results. Last production was discontinued in November 1944.

Ju87H

Two-seater trainer aircraft, developed from the D-type.

Ju87K

An export version of the A1 type, equipped with the Hungarian Air Force
