Ju 87 Production at Weser Flugzeugbau
 
A friend of mine compiled the production list below:
5000-5066 67 A-1
5067-5456 390 B-1
5457-5561 105 R-1
5562-5730 169 B-2
5731-6202 472 R-2
6203-6346 144 R-4
6347-6938 592 D-1

Can anyone confirm - or infirm - this reconstructed list?

Thank you, in advance.

These serials were all 087xxxx. Just like Ju 86 and Ju 88, starting this practice in before 1936 - all were "serial system" where "designator" 087 was added. Weser was main contractor, after Junkers switched to Ju 88´s.
Later there were also six and seven digit Ju 87 numbers, plus designator. And there was also Ju 87 D- types with serial under (087)1000 and over (087)1000, NOT stating at (087)2xxx series,
but I have not compiled the excact ranges. Besides 100xxx, 110xxx, 130xxx and 140xxx series and 494xxx, possibly some duplicating others.
I have extracted, but not all are available thrugh GQM and/or Junkers records. Quite a lot to read really.

Hi Denniss, the main point here is not (only) the number of manufactured Stukas, but their Werknummer batches. That's why it would be important to see if someone has reliable data regarding W.Nr.

Re: Ju 87 Production at Weser Flugzeugbau
 
Batces from Denés and Meriln are both very basic (I think inaccuarte), and do not fit at all to what I have extacted, but thats not verified yet. It was "works in progress" but other tasks (Ju 88 mainly) have postponed doing the Ju 87 properly.. Ju 87 B/R series went on from 087 5070 to apx 7069, if my data is correct (2000 examples) bu this might be over target. I very much doupt the "batches" were so clean. My experiance with Junkers practice of assigning W.Nrs on the production line, and changing some, so one needs take into account "planned assigned W.Nr.s" (Soll) against actual used (Ist.) tell me differt. But this was the case of Ju 88 C-1´s.
