But the Ju 188 was the Ju 88 E / F (just renumbered to give name to "new design") developed from the Ju 88 B V, so no real difference. It practically was the same plane. Internally it had much of the same parts as Ju 88, even down to the part numbers.

Hardly the same as an intact fresh water recovery though is it! The huge shame is it wasn't discovered 30-40 years later than when it was. |
