Kit# 4728 The RLM issued a requirement for a high speed bomber in the mid-1930s. Junkers submitted a design from which several prototypes were produced. The first examples were powered by two Daimler Benz DB 600 engines each, followed by further test articles powered by the Jumo 211. Jumo power was selected for the production variants of the Ju 88 and the engineering team worked out a number of teething problems with the aircraft.The first production version was the Ju 88A series that was configured as a bomber. The Ju 88C series was the night fighter/fighter-bomber version. The Ju 88D series was configured for long-range reconnaissance. The Ju 88B introduced a new nose that led to the parallel development of the Ju 188. The Ju 88G was a night fighter that was based upon the longer fuselage of the Ju 188. The Ju 88H was a reconnaissance platform also based upon the longer Ju 188 fuselage. The Ju 88P was a cannon-armed tank hunter. The Ju 88S and Ju 88T were the final versions with the long fuselage and higher performance engines.Extremley detailed kit!!Markings are provided for three examples: Ju 88A-1, 7./KG 54, B3+DR, France, Sep 1940, 'Battle of Britain' Ju 88A-1, 3./KG 30, 4D+FL, France, 1940, 'Battle of Britain' Ju 88A-1, Unknown Test Unit, U4-TK, Norway, 1940 In addition to the three sets of distinctive markings, there is also
