How about you explain why you picked the Ju 87 instead of just posting anything.

Not really...the JU87 was armored like a flying tank. however, it was a slow aircraft until the G variant came. it even had AT guns on it! thus it gets my vote. unless took in a few bullets, you usually got back home safely. plus, who wasnt afraid of a "wailer" on the landing gear?

You might want to learn a bit more about the Stuka.

It was not a flying tank.

The G varient was not fast either. It was no faster than the D, and only 8 mph faster than the B.

All aircraft usually got back home safely unless they took a few bullets.

Are you serious????? The P-47 was one of the most robust and strongest built aircraft of WW2. I suggest some serious remedial WW2 Aviation 101.

the Bf 109´s was great dogfighters, theres a list of jug killers in luftwaffe, but in general, jugs was really built to receive several punishments and still fliyng.

Not quite. The Bf 109 was a great aircraft but the P-47 was more robust and could probably withstand more punishment.

that was not what i ment
i didn't said that the BF was the most resistant plane in the wwii
i was just comparing, saying that the jug didn't had that much armour
I could have compared it with the FW or other
i just ment that it the jug only proved highly effective when unopposed
