Italeri 1/72 JU-87 B2 Stuka - kit briefing

The Italeri 1/72 JU-87 B2 Stuka kit brings the dive bomber to life in small scale, focusing on the aircrafts key visual cues and tactical role in WWII. Moulded parts capture structural elements that will please builders seeking a compact, displayable model.

Role and battlefield use

Employed as a dive bomber and close support aircraft, the Stuka operated most effectively when fighter escorts secured the skies. It conducted missions across a wide geographic range but struggled when faced with agile enemy fighters.
