Historical description of the model:

The Junkers Ju 87A is a German dive bomber, more widely known as the “Stuka,” used by the Luftwaffe in the early stages of World War II. This was the first serially produced Stuka variant, which took part in, among others, the Polish campaign in 1939 and the invasion of France in 1940, becoming a symbol of German Blitzkrieg warfare. The operational use of the Ju 87A was mainly in the years 1937–1940.
