Talk:Junkers K 47

Some work still needs to be done here to clarify the Chinese Tien Chu designation (Hanzi characters, translation); and some sense needs to be made of the many real and proposed variants - there are starting points here and here that need to be reconciled. --Rlandmann (talk) 00:57, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

Not a fighter
The A.48/K.47 was actually optimized for diving and was the progenitor of the Ju.87 Stuka, for which it is far more famous than as a "fighter." I don't have time right now to do any of your vaunted citation-hunting, but take a look at Peter Smith's "Junkers Ju.87 Stuka" and Eddie Creek's "Junker's Ju.87," the two most authoritative books on the airplane and its predecessors.173.62.108.108 (talk) 22:54, 9 November 2012 (UTC)
