Junkers Ju 87 Stuka
The Junkers Ju 87 or Stuka (from Sturzkampfflugzeug, "dive bomber") was a German dive bomber and ground-attack aircraft designed by Hermann Pohlmann and first flew in 1935. The Ju 87 made its combat debut in 1937 with the Luftwaffe's Condor Legion during the Spanish Civil War. It served the Axis forces in World War II.
The aircraft was easily recognisable by its inverted gull wings and fixed spatted undercarriage. Upon the leading edges of its faired main gear legs were mounted the Jericho-Trompete ("Jericho trumpet") wailing sirens, becoming the propaganda symbol of German air power and the blitzkrieg victories of 1939–1942. The Stuka's design included several innovative features, including automatic pull-up dive brakes under both wings to ensure that the aircraft recovered from its attack dive even if the pilot blacked out from the high g-forces.
Srpska verzija:unkers Ju 87 „štuka“ (nem. Sturzkampfflugzeug) nemacki je borbeni avion, dvosed, bombarder, iz perioda Drugog svetskog rata. Bila mu je osnovna namena dejstvo vazduh—tlo, taktickim postupkom bombardovanja, direktnog obrušavanja na cilj. Razvijen je i proizvoden za potrebe Luftvafea, prema zahtevima nacisticke doktrine ratovanja blickrig.[1] Bio je specifican i po izgledu krila, dvostrukog („lomljenog“) ugla diedra.
Pri napadu u obrušavanju, Ju 87 je pravio veliku buku vazdušnom sirenom, sa nadimkom „Trube Jerihona“. To je imalo dopunski psihološki efekat zastrašivanja.[2][3] U toku obrušavanja, otvarale su mu se aerodinamicke kocnice povecavajuci otpor, u funkciji potrebe za ogranicenjem brzine, za lakše i bezbednije „vadenje“ iz toga režima leta, na maloj visini.[1] Pri „vadenju“ iz obrušavanja, izvlacila bi mu se zakrilca, generišuci moment propinjanja, sa prirastom normalnog ubrzanja na vrednost od 6g, automatski, bez komande pilota. Kada se „nos“ aviona podigne iznad horizonta, uvlacile su se aerodinamicke kocnice, pilot je tada dodavao gas motoru i avion se penjao na bezbednu visinu, sa uvucenim zakrilcima. Na ovaj nacin je bio obezbeden let za slucaj kada pilot izgubi svest, pri velikim opterecenjima, usled velikog normalnog ubrzanja u manevru „vadenja“ iz obrušavanja, pošto nije imao anti-g odelo, kiseonicku opremu i kabinu pod pritiskom, te nije bio ni zašticen.
