Why this kit matters
The Junkers Ju 87 "Stuka" was a German dive bomber and ground-attack aircraft. The G variant was specifically designed as a tank hunter, armed with two 37mm Flak 18 cannons mounted in underwing pods. These cannons were highly effective against Soviet tanks on the Eastern Front. The Ju 87G-2 became a symbol of the Luftwaffe's ground attack capabilities, and was flown by some of Germany's most decorated pilots. Despite its vulnerability to enemy fighters, the Ju 87G-2 played a significant role in the early years of World War II.
This model kit allows you to recreate the Ju87G2 STUKA TANK ATTACKER in detailed 1/48 scale, capturing its historical significance and unique tank-busting armament. It offers a challenging and rewarding building experience for experienced modellers and provides a great display piece, celebrating the role of ground attack aircraft in WWII.
