Ju352A-1 transport for the luftwaffe
43 built 1943-1944

This version of the awesome Ju252A-1 used non-strategic materials and while not matching the exceptional performance of the all-aluminium Ju252, provided a huge performance boost over the Ju52. KG200 used almost the entire output of the type. Ju352 production only stopped because Germany switched to all-fighter production. It most likely would have replaced the Ju52 in a war situation like that of the 1946 campaigns. Enough Ju352s survived into 1945 to make them a significant portion of the entire Luftwaffe transport fleet at the end of the war. Plus, it is one of my favorite planes .
