Junkers

Military Aircraft of World War Two

Mark A Chambers
Founded in Dessau in 1895, the Junkers Aircraft Company was already building innovative planes in the First World War. However, as this history of the firm records, it was only after it was taken over by the Nazi regime that it made its name with the Stuka dive-bomber, versatile transport planes and pioneering jet engines that influenced subsequent US aircraft design.
