Tamiya 1/48 Junkers Ju87 B-2 Stuka w/Bomb Loading Set

Tamiyan kuvaus:

Tamiya welcomes back Item 37008 which was firstly sold in 2011.

The Junkers Ju87 Stuka dive bomber was developed in 1934 and scenes of them diving down on their targets became synonymous with the German Blitzkrieg. Of the many variants which were produced, the Ju87 B was the mainstay of the Lufwaffe in the early years of WWII. The rugged aircraft featured inverted gull wings and fixed landing gear and was powered by a 1,200hp Junkers Jumo 211D engine.

Although they suffered heavy losses during the Battle of Britain, they continued to be used to good effect in other theaters such as the Mediterranean, Russia, and the Balkans.
