Hasegawa's 1/48 Ju 87 Stuka B-2, D and R-2?

[Lucky13]

Need some help here chaps! I knew that Hasegawa's done a B-2 Stuka, I didn't know that they'd done a D and a R-2 version as well....
Are these, the D and the R-2, their own molds, or are they some old ones bought over from another manufacturer?
What's the word?
Just thought that I'd add a Stuka to the "collection" or the "production line", remember building many blue moons ago in 1/72, while visiting my Granddad....




What's the main difference between the B, D and the R?

[Wurger]

R mark was the B type modification for loger range. The Ju87R was equipped with fuel tanks of bigger capacity in wings and two additional fuel tanks under wings.. D version was powered by another Junkers Jumo 211 engine J-1 ( Jumo 211Da for B and R versions) That's way the front part of the Ju87D had different shape from B and R Ju87s ( longer nose). Because Ju 87 D based on B type,the most of D-1 planes were equipped with the same main landing gear like B type.Later Ju87Ds got the landing gear of different shape. Starting from D-5 variant Ju87 was equipped with a wing of bigger wingspan.Of course there were other modifications introduced but these above were these major in the external view.
