A Douglas SBD Dauntless drops its bomb. The dive brakes are extended and are visible behind the wings. A dive bomber is a bomber aircraft that dives directly at its targets in order to provide greater accuracy for the bomb it drops. Diving towards the target simplifies the bomb's trajectory and allows the pilot to keep visual contact throughout
The Stuka was Blitzkrieg! One of the most instantly recognisable aircraft from the Second World War, the Junkers Ju-87 Stuka was a two man dive-bomber and ground attack aircraft, which first flew in 1935. With a two man crew, up to four machine guns and the ability to carry 1800kg of bombs, the Stuka was rather a large aeroplane to be powered
The Stuka was borderline obsolete when the war started. It was so slow as to be a sitting duck for British and American fighters. That's like saying the A-10 was obsolete ever since it was designed. The Ju-87 required air superiority or pretty decent air cover to do its job, just like the A-10 does.
Swine's Stuff. The Junkers Ju 87 or Stuka (from Sturzkampfflugzeug, "dive bomber") was a German dive bomber and ground-attack aircraft. Designed by Hermann Pohlmann, it first flew in 1935. The Ju 87 made its combat debut in 1937 with the Luftwaffe's Condor Legion during the Spanish Civil War and served the Axis forces in World War II. #ShortsSirens attached to Stuka dive bombers, it was used to cause panic and fear to the enemies of the Luftwaffe.This video is a recording from the Battlefi The Sirens work like horns and make their sound from the air rushing through them in a dive once you reach a certain air speed. These were very good at effecting morale and causing troops to panic, break formation, and scatter at the start of the war. HNmdX.
