Stuka Sturzkampfflugzeuge or her first name . In German means dive bombers . This name was subsequently borne by a small bomber belonging to the Luftwaffe ( German Air Force ) , the Junkers Ju 87 . Created pause during the war ( 1935 ) , Ju 87 became the key to victory pattern German blitzkrieg , Blitzkrieg , during World War II . The bomber was also famous for his death whistle sound before dropping the bomb .
Small , at first glance like a fighter in his day -leaning light and practical . But many say the best form of ugly ( ugly ) and not agile . With Jumo 210 engines Ca ( Anton version ) measuring 640 Horsepower , flight speed was slow , only 285 km / h . Defense weapons are also fairly minimal . That is one rifle caliber 7.92 mm MG 17 on wings . In some cases , a manual rifle caliber 7.92 mm MG 15 used gunner ( shooter ) in the rear cockpit .
In the version of G ( Gustav ) is replaced with a pair of guns Flak 18 cannon ( LB 3.7 ) 37 mm , 12 bullets . Then be as bomber and Ju 87g tank destroyer efficacious . Therefore , Kanonenvogel or nickname as Canonbird or Panzernacker ( splitting tanks ) are also carried by the bomber who entered the ranks of the air force the Luftwaffe in 1937 . Concrete evidence , in the Battle of Kursk ( a series of German invasion of the Soviet Union, 1943-1944 ) , Hans - Ulrich Rudel who flew with the bomber as many as 2,530 sorties ( although it was shot down 30 times until the leg had to be replaced with metal legs ) successfully devastated 519 army tanks Red Bear . The results are clearly amazing .
whistle death
Therefore many historians cost artificial awe and classify firm Junkers German bomber as legendary . When in the air like a terrible predator . The road is slow can suddenly turn into a bird swoop delivering iron bombs SC 250 kg while stridently distinctive voice , " whistle death " of the trumpet Jerricho posted the pilots in the trunk main wheels . Enemy soldiers who were targeted simply stunned before realizing the strange new creature in space .
One of the historians who provide commentary on the Ju 87 was William Green to say Stuka as " An evil looking machine with something of the predatory bird in its ugly Contours . " In addition , the book Warplane of the Luftwaffe (1994 ) mentioned , the Junkers Ju 87 was the plane that sank the most in history , and tanks of World War II for all types of aircraft . Except not Ilyushin Il - 2 rival Soviet Shturmovik . Is understandable , because IL- 2 is produced aircraft in history the majority of about 35,000 while Stuka just made some 5,700 pieces only .
The greatness of Ju 87 in the bombing no doubt many people at that time . In the history of flight , two other bombers were able to counter its effectiveness is called SBD Dauntless bomber Aichi D3A Val and the Japanese .
Gait first Ju 87 bombers began when the German Air Force assigned the condor legion to support the power of the Nationalist front in the Civil War ( civil war ) in Spain ( 1936-1939 ) . In the event of war against the army of the Republic of left-wing socialists who supported the power of the Soviet Union , Ju 87 opened new horizons between seliweran fighter in the air as the Heinkel He 51 , Fiat CR.32 , Messerschmitt Bf 109D ( Nationalist ) , Hawker Fury , Polikarpov I -16 ( Republic ) and the other bomber Savoia Marchetti , Junkers Ju 52/3m ( Nationalist ) and Tupolev SB - 2 ( Republic ) . Army of the Republic was repelled , and the name Stuka soar to the surface .
Attack Warsaw
Stuka success continued and gained momentum in Germany to Poland lightning attack also marked the opening of World War II in parts of Europe on 1 September 1939 . Many as nine Stukagruppen ( Stuka bomber group ) or 366 aircraft covering the sky turns Poland completes the delivery of 300 heavy bombers and Heinkel He 111 bomber medium Dornier Do 17 . fact , the Stuka was also the drums of war against Poland echoed Hitler eleven minutes after the three bombers flew from Elbing towards the targeted Dischau bridge over the Vistula at 4:36 o'clock in the morning .
Bombarded the capital Warsaw . Likewise with the airbase occupied Krakow and Lemburg old combatants and P.11c PZL P.7 , Naval Base Putzig / Rahmel and PZL aircraft industry itself suppressed without mercy .
Poland to fight with a light bomber PZL P.23b Karas . But its still too small to offset the power of Germany . German Nazi ground forces continue to besiege merangsak and Polish military areas . Then within 10 days only twelve combat divisions in Kutno successfully isolated the Nazis . Poland has the support Britain and France , but too late before finally bow .
With the role and function of this, not surprisingly , Stuka electrify enemies that appear and is referred to as a pacesetter and spine ( backbone ) for the ground forces of Nazi soldiers . Germany got the wind and kept getting invaded in European countries . Likewise in striking to the City of Rotterdam , the Netherlands ( May 1940 ) , Stuka likewise not be dammed . This bomber is a new monster for the enemies of Hitler .
The term dive bombers , where air movement and dive bomb ( dive and bombing ) , is already in a blaze during World War I. In fact , it was mentioned , the German designers actually learn this technique from the U.S. Navy finally realized in 1933 and won the competition Junkers Ju 87 Stuka ( 1935 ) . Junkers was actually started working on this dive bombing technique in 1920 , by issuing a double -winged bomber K - 47 , the twelve fruits of which never sold to China ( 1928) .
Ability swoop and dive out the back of the track is its own advantages of inverted gull -winged bomber ( inverted - gull ) Ju 87 . Mengakuratkan addition to the bombing as well as the mechanism is controlled automatically or auto pilot . Only pilots to set altimeter and dive angle desired . After that just lowering the blade brake (brake ) under the wing and the aircraft will move itself .
Since 1935 Stuka made various improvements and continue to have a special version . From version to Gustav Anton as mentioned earlier ( though for the G version is actually a shift in roles where the ability tukiknya lost , due to the brakes on the wing slats below for hatchlings removed for perfect placement cannon pod tank destroyer ) .
Another example is a version of the model Stuka C ( Clara ) are made to fill the aircraft carrier Graf Zeppelin . The bomber is equipped tail hook ( hook straps ) , folding wings ( wing folding ) and the ability of stem jettisonable wheel ( can be removed ) to landing ( ditching ) in the sea . But this version is only 12 units were made , following the development of the mother ship is stopped . Another version is that the torpedo bombers Ju 87D ( though in fact the torpedo bomber function is far better carried out by aircraft capable of flying faster and larger payload capacity of the Henschel He Ju 11H and 88A ) . Ju 87R long-range version with additional fuel tank capacity and Ju 87H trainer version .
Berta version developed in some other versions . For example, the version used by the corps Trop Africa . Version B is also used on the Eastern Front by other countries such as Slovakia , Romania , Bulgaria , Hungary , and by the Italian Regia Aeronautica .
A version after the addition of rifles enhanced capabilities . Ie, with the installation of two Rheinmetall MG 17 machine gun 7.92 mm , canon 20mm MG 151/20 ( Ju 87D - 5 , D - 8 ) , and a bomb capacity of more than one ton . Likewise with the replacement of the engine in order to increase the speed to fly .
However , it does not mean Stuka can not be paralyzed in the history of the battle . This is already starting to feel the great battle with neighboring England . In the Battle of Brittain 280 Ju 87 flown to invade England . In this war with a victory despite Stuka dropping RAF fighter , but in the later rounds Stuka falling . Not another thing that is done is due to the siege of two hunters quickly nan tough Supermarin Spitfire and Hawker Hurricane . Version B , which fell in the battle to cross the English Channel is often mocked as a sitting duck ( an easy target ) in the air for the British fighter . Imagine , in the six day war , 60 Ju 87 was dropped opposition.
Therefore , in order to get around bergugurannya Stuka in the next battle field are included in the more violent , often escorted by Ju 87 fighter . Besides, in the next stage as well as the bombers made a night ( night bomber ) .
In the Battle of Kursk (1943-1944) Ju 87 was started to find petanding greater . He is none other than land attack aircraft Il - 2 Shturmovik . Ju 87 steps were escorted Bf 109g and Wulf Fw 190A - Fock turned off by tactical fighter Lavochkin La - 5FN and Yakovlev Yak - 9 armed with a 12.7 mm caliber machine gun and 200 rounds of 20 mm cannon shVAK 120 bullets . In this great battle , the two sides did hit each other . But Germany lost more aircraft than the 900 pieces Soviets who lost 600 aircraft . Two German Ace Heinz Schmidt ( 173 victories ) and Max Stotz ( 189 victories ) was also doomed in this great war .
After this year , the role of Ju 87 dive bomber that was aging eventually shifted into close support aircraft ( close support) or Schlachtflugzeug , which began on D - 5 version . The reason is obvious , given the Ju 87 could not be continuously escorted fighter .
In fact , more than that , finally Stuka was also used to pull gliders .
No victory , no defeat . However the Ju 87 Stuka War II certainly is a phenomenon . Moreover, this bomber is remembered as a legendary bomber . Directly related or not , is touted bomber inspired the manufacture of tank destroyer ground-attack aircraft A - 10 Thunderbolt ( Warthog ) belonging to the U.S. , which glory we had seen in the 1991 Gulf War .
