The internal fuel capacity of the Ju 87D was raised to 800 L (of which 780 L were usable) by adding wing tanks while retaining the option to carry two 300 L drop tanks. Tests at Rechlin-Lärz Airfield revealed it made possible a flight duration of 2 hours and 15 minutes. With an extra two 300 L (80 US gal) fuel tanks, it could achieve four hours flight time. Production of the D-1 variant started in 1941 with 495 ordered. These aircraft were delivered between May 1941 and March 1942. Made of aluminum, this is a FANTASTIC piece!. AS it comes from a wreck, it does feature some slight scratches and bends, but it is VERY SOLID otherwise, with NO corrosion or major damage! All information is CLEARLY legible. Made by Junkers, markings indicated are: Junkers Flugzeug u. Motorenwerke A-G Dessau Ju87 D-1 Trop Werk-Nr. 087041. XXXX “Wesser” Flugzeugbau Gestellschaft m.b.H. Bremen As so few Ju87 Dive Bombers remain, it makes this a VERY RARE item! Plate itself measures approx. 1″ x 3″ in size, and is still attached to an original piece of the fuselage skin! Would make a FANTASTIC addition to any collection, display, or restoration project!
