The Junkers Ju 352 A-0 "Herkules " or The V-5 prototype The Junkers Ju 352 Herkules was a German World War II transport aircraft developed from the Junkers Ju 252. It was designed to make maximum use of non-strategic materials, replacing the Junkers Jumo 211F engines of the Ju 252 with Bramo 323R radial engines.Design and DevelopmentThe Ju 352 was similar in outline to the Ju 252, but with a wooden wing mounted further aft on the fuselage. The aircraft had a composite structure, with a wooden wing and a metal fuselage. The Ju 352 was powered by three BMW-Bramo 323R-2 radial engines, each producing 1,000 hp (746 kW) for take-off and 1,200 hp (895 kW) with water-methanol injection.SpecificationsType: General Purpose TransportCrew: Three or Four depending on loadoutDesign: Junkers Flugzeug und Motorenwerke AG Design TeamManufacturer: Junkers Flugzeug und Motorenwerke AG from a satellite plant at FritzlarPowerplant: Three BMW-Bramo 323R-2 Fafnir 9-cylinder air-cooled radial engines rated at 1,000 hp (746 kW) for take-off and 1,200 hp (895 kW) with water-methanol injectionOperational HistoryThe Ju 352 made its first flight on October 1, 1943, and an order for 10 pre-production Ju 352A-Os was placed soon after. Production Ju 352A-ls were delivered to the Luftwaffe from February 1944, but by the summer of 1944, the worsening war situation led to the cancellation of transport aircraft production. Despite this, the Ju 352 saw limited service, including a notable mission on the night of April 26/27, 1945, when one aircraft became the last to land at Gatow with reinforcements, before returning to base carrying wounded soldiers.VariantsSeveral developments of the basic design were proposed, including the Ju 352B with more powerful engines and increased defensive armament. One Letov-built aircraft was presented to the Soviet Union in 1946. Listing and template services provided by inkFrog
