The Junkers JU 87 was a two-seat dive bomber and ground attack aircraft. The aircraft was developed by Hermann Pohlmann. The first flights took place in 1935, and in 1936 the Stuka was in combat for the first time as part of the Legion Condor in the Spanish Civil War. It was easy to recognize by its wing, reminiscent of an inverted seagull, as well as the characteristic howl during a dive. The Stuka design included some technical innovations, including the storm brakes under both wings, which guaranteed that the manoeuvrability of the aircraft was maintained and the pilots could also keep moving targets in their sights. It became a symbol of the German "Blitzkriege" in the early phase of World War II and supported the armoured divisions of the Wehrmacht from the air. It was used by the Air Force during the Battle of England when he proved to be slow and inferior in attacks by modern, well-armed fighters, such as the Hurricanes and Spitfires.
