Henschel Ju-Hs 87
In 1944 Germany knew that its Ju-87 Stuka and also the Henschel Hs 129 were performing well, but they knew that this was not changing the course of battles both over the air and on land.
That's why Germany, Henschel Hs and Junkers Ju, got together in a project called Henschel Ju-Hs 87.
A tank destroyer capable of destroying even the famous Soviet T-34 tanks, the Henschel Ju-Hs 87 began its development in 1944 towards the end of the war, containing 3 crew, possessing an anti-tank cannon, two machine guns and two medium bombs, about 600 Henschel Ju-Hs 87 of them were produced, the Soviets called him "Demon".
The damage this plane caused was immense, it even destroyed several tanks and armored vehicles and even shot down planes.
Even so, it only changed the course of the war a little, but not so much, it was decommissioned in 1956, that's right, it was used even though it was very old and even participated in more conflicts.
But then he was retired and his legacy was never forgotten.
