Junkers Ju 88 B-0

The Ju 88 B-0 was the pre-production version of the B Series Ju 88. It featured the revised nose seen prominently on the Ju 188 and the BMW 801 engines. Swapping bits between existing Ju 88/188 kits makes this an easy build.

Only 10 of these were built and they spent their careers as photo recon planes. Performance did not merit large scale production, but it can be seen these are just a step away from the Ju 188.

I had a spare Ju 188 fuselage and extra Ju 88 A-4 parts. The wings and tail parts are from a Revell kit.
In this case, the BMW 801 engines are from an AMT G-1 kit, but could be used from a Ju 188 kit.
