Country:  |  JU88 Rear (lower) guns
I need close up pics or blueprints of the rear of the gondola under the Ju88, specifically the gun area (twin barrel Ruger I think, rather than the single MG with the rotating mount) for a CG model I'm working on.
I have plenty pics of every other part but no one seems to have taken pics of this.
If anyone could help it would be greatly apprecitated.
Thanks. |

Country:  | Great drawings Micdrow! Looks like they came from a squadron/ signal book?
I have a photo and drawing of this area in a book on the Ju 88 in all it's variants by Helmut Fürth. If you give us your address in a PM, I can photocopy them for you. | |

Country:  | It doesn't look like the gunner has much of a chance to see anything with the Bola 39/87 mountings displayed.
Anyone have info on how well-liked that mounting was with the gunners? | |

I diffently will keep it in mind. You are correct on the pictures they are from two different squadron signal books on the Ju-88.
Again many thanks!!!!
