It's the Heinkel He 177 V12 with two MK 103 under the nose, I think. The same photo can be found in
"Heinkel He 177-277-274" by Griehl and Dressel

Hi everyone,

I just came across this blogpost on a French post-war research project that used a Ju 88 as a test bed for ram jet engines:

French use of Luftwaffe aircraft - Ju 88 in French service

falkeeins.blogspot.com

The airframe was cleaned up a bit compared to its wartime configuration, but I'm still quite impressed that the French Ju 88 was flown to Mach 0.7 on two occasions!

Regards,

Henning (HoHun)

Ju388 drawings?

Hi all.


If I might ask for help please?


I'm currently searching for good scale drawings of the Junkers Ju388 (glass nose) and would be very grateful for any help or pointing me in the right direction.
I've searched the internet but have not found anything at a high enough resolution to see clearly.


Many thanks for any help.

Hi Peter, I am currently working on a 388 in Sketch-Up. If you have Sketch-up and want a copy I can oblige, but please bear in mind its incomplete.

Does anyone know what book this photo is from? The photo is from the r/Warthunder subreddit.

I do not have my copy immediately to hand. But I think the page is from William Green's Warplanes of the Third Reich.

I would like to have a crack at rendering that tbh. Please.

In the Ju 388 book mentioned above, probably the best drawing showing what you are interested in is inside the back cover. It is an enhanced copy of microfilm images from USNASM. A similar, but much sharper image can be found on pages 256 and 257 of Junkers Ju 88 volume 1, #23 in the Classic luftwaffe series. The advantage of the one in the Ju 388 book is that it is pretty well dimensioned. Both are copies of original JFM drawings.
Best regards,
