The Junkers Ju-88 was a World War II Luftwaffe twin-engine, multi-role aircraft. Designed by Hugo Junkers in the mid 1930s, it became one of the most versatile combat aircraft. In October, 1943, the Luftwaffe launched the first of 29 raids, sometimes called the Little Blitz. Most raids were made at night and London was attacked on January 21, 1944. The last raid was in March 1944, which was the last German bombing offensive against Britain to include this Ju-88A.
