Country:  | Well I commend you on your effort there P-38 pilot and that is what counts. It really does make a good impression on people of another country if you try there language. If it does not work but you made an effort they usually are happy to speak yours. They just get tired of the "Do you speak English?" question. Maybe one day I can teach you some German! 
Anyhow back to the Ju-87R thing it actually stands for Reichweite or Range. To get more fuel tank capacity the outer wings were restructured to accomodate 2 × 33 Imp gal (40 US gal, 15 liters) additional tanks to supplement the standard set of tanks in the inner wings of 53 Imp gal (63 US gal, 240 liters) each. Also the outer wings had 2 hardpoints to carry a droptank each of 66 Imp gal (79 US gal, 300 liters). It could not carry the four 110 lb (50 kg) bombs anymore, and the bomb under the fuselage was restricted to 551 lb (250 kg).http://www.xs4all.nl/~fbonne/warbirds/ww2htmls/junkju87.html

Country: | There were not very many that had that on them. To be honest I do not know how many. I think it was just one and the personnal symbol of a certain pilot but I am not sure.

Country: | According to this site it was on two different aircraft and both might have been flown by Hubert Polz.

Country: | Most of the literature that I have on the Stuka (and I have a lot) says Hubert Polz. I have heard mention here and elsewhere that the several from the Gruppe may have been painted the same way but that's not generally thought to be true. Also because there don't appear to be any pictures of the right side of the aircraft there's no way to confirm whether the snake is on both sides. Maybe there is a Stuka vet out there that could confirm? I have the Luftwaffe In Focus No7 on order so I'll try and post up the relevant section when it arrives and anything else I believe is relevant. I'll take a look tonight in my collection.... | |
