Oh yippee! The only thing more easy to shoot down than an SBD is a Ju-87... bring-it-on Superfly!

I heard in order to save code, they gave the stuka a B17 rear gunner :)

Hmm.... I know of more than 200 other guys who figured the SBD was an easy mark, but who have reconsidered that position after painful experiences. :eek:  

Likewise, the lowly Stuka can be lethal if taken lightly, or ignored as not being a danger.

Never underestimate any aircraft... ;)
