Description
By the end of the first year of the war, the German Air Force Command must have known that the Junkers Ju 87B could no longer meet the requirements in many ways. The gradual improvement in ground defence and the increasing use of combat aircraft during the war led to the conversion of the Ju 87 into a fighter-bomber. The D version received a stronger engine, a new aerodynamic fairing and stronger armour. The new role was now mainly that of ground attack, including anti-tank with a 37mm cannon. In the spring of 1944, work on converting the Ju 87 D-3 into tank destroyer types G-1 and G-2 finally began.
Decals for a D and a G-2 version included:
- Junkers Ju 87G-2 from 10. (Pz) St.G 3, Jakobstadt, Latvia, July 1944
- Junkers Ju 87D-3 from 4./St.G 2 Russia 1944
