The Stukas Return: A Fateful Dive-Bombing Attack on a Mediterranean Convoy during World War II This evocative photograph captures the intensity and danger of a dive-bombing attack on a Mediterranean convoy by German Stukas JU87B, as depicted in this image by acclaimed war photographer G.H. Davis. The date was 10 January 1941, and the convoy, laden with vital supplies, had been under relentless attack from dawn till dusk. Despite the odds, the convoy managed to escape, but at least 12 German Stukas did not return. The Stukas, a formidable force in the German air fleet, were renowned for their precision and devastating power. In this attack, they dived from an altitude of 7000 feet in just 13.75 seconds, a breathtaking maneuver that required exceptional skill and courage from the pilots. The special fittings on the JU87B dive-bomber, including the distinctive inverted gull-wing design, were specifically engineered to maximize the effectiveness of this deadly tactic. The photograph offers a unique glimpse into the tactics and technique used by the German air force during this pivotal moment in the Second World War. The Stukas' return to the Mediterranean marked a turning point in the conflict, highlighting the importance of air power in shaping the outcome of the war at sea. This image is a poignant reminder of the bravery and determination of the pilots involved, and the devastating consequences of their actions.
