Junkers Ju-87B1 Questions

[Leo Etgen]

Hello Richard

According to the old Warplanes of the Third Reich book by William Green the Ju 87 B-1 could carry either a 550 kilogram bomb on the ventral crutch or a 250 kilogram bomb on the ventral crutch in addition to four 50 kilogram bombs on the underwing racks with the full crew compliment. The forward-firing MG 17 7.92 millimeter machine guns were fitted one in either wing and the rear-firing MG 15 7.92 millimeter machine gun was fitted to a flexible mount in the rear fuselage. I hope this helps.

Horrido!
