Aircraft of World War II: Junkers Ju 87 - The Stuka (ePub)

The "Stukas" if you did not know you knew definitely looking from the deafening roar and fury disruptive.
The Stuka was also famous for "the scream" that emitted launching into beaten against a target. in almost all versions, in fact, was mounted in the basket a siren that you drove with the beaten and emitted, in fact, a kind of scream. This served to terrorize the enemies on the ground and, for this reason, the Stuka earned a reputation even more terrible, the Junkers Ju 87 Stuka also said (in German Sturzkampfflugzeug, literally "combat aircraft swooping"), was a bomber swooping wing single-engine configuration with inverted gull wing. Although designed in 1933 by the German Junkers GmbH, the Stuka remained in production for over nine years, staying for the duration of the war, essentially unchanged in structure and basic configuration, test the overall validity of the machine. Were built more than 5,700 copies in a dozen versions, which fought on all fronts.
In an attack dive against ground targets the greatest operational flaw lay in violent lateral acceleration experienced by the pilot, not having available at that time in chemical suits differentiated compression fainted at the height of the effort (coinciding with the release of the bomb).
So not being able to regain control of the plane ended up crashing to the ground ...
The German designers solved the problem by designing an automatic "recall" of the bar that was activated before the dive, and that allowed to bring back to share the plane after the attack in case of fainting of the pilot, who had so everything time to recover his senses and control apparatus.
