New Release A07115A Airfix 1:48th Scale Junkers Ju87R-2/B-2 Stuka Model Kit.

The Junkers Ju87 Stuka quickly became one of the most infamous and feared weapons of the Second World War and the two-man dive bomber first saw action in the skies over Spain during the Spanish Civil War. While outdated in appearance, the Stuka did contain some modern features such as automatic dive brakes, but overall the design was outmoded. 

Over the skies of Poland, France and the Low Countries in 1940 the Stuka was able to operate in clear skies and did so very effectively but over the South of England during the Battle of Britain, the Stuka came up against staunch fighter opposition and suffered greatly as a result. 

Later the Stuka was used in the Balkans and the Western Desert, and continued to serve in Russia as a tank destroyer until the end of the Second World War.

This superb large 1:48th scale new release model makes up into two different aircraft variants with the decals to match, the first being aircraft A5+BH, 1./StG1, Krainici, Bulgaria, early April 1941 and the second is aircraft F1+AM flown by Hptm. Otto Schmidt, Staffelkaptain, 7./St77, Gorlawka, Russia, August 1942.
