At least until 1942, the high pitched scream of the Stukas sent troops beneath scurrying for cover. As dive-bomber, and ground attack aircraft, it was deadly accurate and excelled in its role as an anti-tank aircraft. Rugged and cheap, a formation of Stukas struck fear even in the hearts of seasoned veterans. Hans-Ulrich Rudel, the top scoring Luftwaffe ace destroyed over 500 Russian tanks – that’s five Russian tank corps. Stalin placed a price on his head, but it was never claimed. Stukas lost their invincibility when the Allies had air cover, as Stukas were very vulnerable to enemy fighters

Yes it was a superb dive Bomber in its time, got mullered during the Battle of Britain when not escorted but well worth having in a collection. How about a version with the long Tank busting cannon, that would look very nice too.Not sure if the Stuka is to be the next plane released though, I think it maybe be Allied :wink2:

The last plane was a ALLIED plane so this should be next............:wink2::wink2:
 
Although I'd like a BOB camo Stuka, it really did have some interesting camo schemes didn't it, I saw a sort of snow scheme on one a while back and that looked like it would be an excellent release. With all these aircraft must be difficult choosing one scheme out of so many.

They could make a couple of versions i would buy them and im sure im not alone................^&cool
 
If or when they release go straight for Ulrichs 'russian can opener' what a great version that would be!!! though as rob points out a BOB version in bits would be great for a dio!!!!

When I talked to Andy last Sep in Los Gatos Ca I asked him if there was plans to release a Stuka in the next year he said no . So I guess we will have to wait and see .
 
I wonder how long Andy plans to wait on this. It was on the original list of 10 polystone planes to be released, and he has reconfirmed this several times. I don't get why we have to wait so long, I though for sure this would be the year. Also I'd like to see it in Afrika Korps paint.
