Ju 88s with Jumo 213E
The answer to your question is fuzzy. The Ju 88 G-7 in various documents are shown to have been projected with either the Jumo 213E or DB 603E/F. Whether any production G-7s actually flew is questionable and if so, which engines were available at that time is also not clear. All data I have had access to indicates all G-6 production had Jumo 213A engines. There were prototype Ju 88s scheduled which had some G-7 features, V112 to V115. How many of these reached flight stage, I have not been able to confirm and if so, how many of the definitive G-7 changes had been incorporated. At least two apparently were completed, but damaged in a strafing attack at Brandenburg-Briest.
New information becomes available from time to time, just recently a photo came to the surface which shows a late war Ju 88 at Brandenburg, apparently with four bladed propellors, this would possibly be one of the G-7 prototypes. Best regards, Artie Bob |
