Nowadays, it is impossible to imagine the German Luftwaffe without its most famous bomber - Junkers Ju-87. But on August 15th, 1939, just two weeks before the outbreak of World War Two, an event took place that cast serious doubts about the feasibility of using Ju-87 Stukas in a major combat role. The accident became known as the "Neuhammer Stuka Disaster" (Neuhammer Stuka-Unglück).
