Junkers 52 bomber

Greetings all,

as I know Ju52 in its early service was used as bomber. Is anywhere available info about its technical features and possible details of construction?

Hello Srecko,

In an original Luftwaffe document dated 1 Dec. 1938, the Ju 52 is listed as 'Beh. Kamp.' The armament consisted of 2 unspecified MGs, while it could carry 1000 kg bomb load.

Here are the technical specs.:
Crew of 4, take-off weight 10,000 kg, engines 3 x BMW 132, top speed (at 0 m) 235 km/h, (at 4,000 m) 240 km/h, range (while flying at 4,000 m) 1,600 km, fuel load 2,450 litres, time to climb to 4,000 m 23 min, ceiling 5,700 m.

I hope this helps,

Pilot
