Hi Guys

The "only" problem with this WNr is that it should basically belong to a Ju 87A-1 or A-2. It is known that many A-0/A-1 and A-2 were converted to B-type prototypes, but I am not sure that any conversion were made "en masse" from A to B.
According to Griehl A-2 WNr are known all the way up to 0429. Of course it is not impossible that early B-models were intermixed WNr wise with late production A-models

Anyone who knows more??

Cheers
Stig
