Tank buster

Original caption: "The Ju-87G Stuka, showing the 3.7 Flak 36 gun mounted under the wing. The cover to the entire mechanism was taken out for the photo. The Stuka was very effective as a tank killer with this weapon. The fundamental question at stake was: how many aircraft could be delivered to the Russian theater of war to quickly balance the threat posed by the new T-34 tanks?"
