JU-87D-5/G-2

Interesting.

 

Stukas were tough planes to begin with because of the dive bomber characteristics and I believe the D/G version had more armor than earlier versions. I forget how many 37mm rounds Rudel's plane took on the eastern front and he made it back. I doubt we will be shooting down many Mustangs or Spitfires but I hope to make it challenging for them.

One of the coolest parts about the Stuka for me is the automated recovery system from a dive. It was pretty fancy for planes back then.

 

Indeed , here is a nice story involving the diving brakes ; watch from 0:49 :smilewink: man i'm w8ing for this plane .. for years!

Very cool story. Moral of the story is don't follow a Stuka into a dive.

That was so cool :P
As was sitting in a cockpit of a single-seater IL-2 ;) Still remember how I pulverized a Biffer online who just didn't understand the amount of firepower I had...

 

Regardless, the Stuka is a MUST buy for a groundpounder like myself. So when's the release then???

Indeed. And the Sturmovik was a close second. ;)

 

Still, gotta love the Stuka coming out for DCS. Would just like to know when???

Can't wait to feel the scary whistle from the cockpit!

 

unfortunately the whistles aka Jericho Trumpets were only mounted on the B models... :(

 

But the D model is a much better plane, no to mention the cannons on the G model!

Can't wait to try the plane in DCS quality!

Not quite correct, all models up to the G had the ability to moint the Jericho Trompeten (there are actual photographs of D-3s fited with sirens). They were just not in widespread use after 1941 anymore unlike in the early war campaigns.

And if you want the Jericho's, someone will create a mod nonetheless. :-) this group is loaded with talent.

Hey Guys,

 

It's been a while since the last update due to my relocation to Colorado and other life events, however life at Polychop is very much alive! I would like to introduce everyone to our first community render of the G-2. Keep in mind there is still some work to be done on the exterior model but we hope you enjoy :)

My wallet is not going to like me in the future with all these great planes and maps coming out in the next 1-2 years. Can't wait to fly this thing and shoot ground targets - and finally in a WWII map with period AI units :joystick:

 

Great work so far :thumbup:
