WW2 German aircraft shot down in 1943 recovered in Leros

A Stuka dive bomber, shot down in 1943, salvaged from the sea between Leros and Rodos Islands

An interesting and rather unique feature of the downed and salvaged Stuka: A steel plate armour, on the side of the pilot's seat, to further enhance survival
