This is the story of the famous German dive-bomber, the Ju.87 Stuka. First tested in the carnage of the Spanish Civil War, then a key element of the Blitzkrieg in Europe, the instantly-recognisable Stuka became a symbol of the Luftwaffe's strength at the beginning of World War Twoand it was greatly feared by its enemies. Despite its increasing obsolescence, the Stuka remained in production until 1944 and operational until the end of the war, both as a bomberand tank-buster. This book describes all versions and variants of the Ju.87 and is illustrated throughout in colour and black-and-white.
