SCREAMING JERICHO By Nicolas Trudgian
Print No2 in the 'Battle of Britain Trilogy'
The first Print in Nicolas Trudgian's fantastic new Battle of Britain Trilogy features one of the most iconic aircraft of the Second World War - the Junkers Ju87 'Stuka'.
On the 16th August 1940, eight Ju87B 'Stukas' of 8./St.G1 attack the 'Chain Home' Radar Station above Ventnor, on the Isle of Wight. This vital afcility, essential to the RAF in detecting incoming raids, would be put out of action for some time.
Four days earlier, conventional bombing by Ju88's had done little damage. However now, the Stuka demonstrates it's remarkable accuracyin it's purpose-built Dive-Bombing role by destroying all of the underground buildings and all but two of those above ground!
Oberleutnant Gunther Skambraks Stuka has just released the single bomb, as the aircraft begins to break from it's near vertical dive. All eight Stukas soon headed back across the Channelhaving accomplished the most successful raid of its type during the Battle of Britain.
The Print measures 28 x 19 Inches
