One of the most modified and varied of all German aircraft during WWII, the Ju 88 served as a bomber, night fighter, recon plane, and more. The A-4 variant was a bomber model with improved defensive armament and stronger engines. Unfortunately for the Axis, the A-4 variant only arrived in the closing days of the Battle of Britain-a conflict that cost the bomber force over 300 Ju 88s of earlier types. On the Eastern Front, Ju 88s crippled Russian air power, dispersed Russian ground forces and helped power the drive to Moscow.
