Best Answer

The 'Stuka' was a single engined, low wing dive bomber made by the German company Junkers. It was actually not a very successful aircraft and only gained fame when used in large numbers in 'terror' attacks with heavy fighter escorts. Stukas on their own were easy targets for even the slowest Allied fighters.
