Question about the successors of Ju 52
 
This may be a silly question, but why the successors of the Ju 52 got the designation Ju 252 and 352, but 152 is missing. Was the number 152 already assigned to Focke Wulf at that time?

Re: Question to the successors of Ju 52
 
The "152" was dedicated to Klemm for the Kl152 travelling aircraft project in 1939 by the Luftfahrtministry. The developement of the Ju252 started in 1940 as EF77 and was later changed into 252.

Best, Horst
