  INFO:  

This plane played an important role in the beginning of the Pacific War as a dive-bomber. Like it's illustrious German counterpart the "Stuka" it was designed in the mid 1930's (1936 to be precise). The Val and Stuka share a number of similarities: both are 2-seaters with fixed forward firing guns and a single flexible rearfiring gun. Also the landing gear is non-retractable. The Val however was carrier based, whereas the Stuka was only landbased. Also did the Stuka have a more powerfull engine, and the typically gull-shaped wings.

  INFO:  

Many of Britain’s wartime defences were never intended to be more than temporary structures, built to serve a short-term need. A corrugated steel Nissen hut makes a fragile monument.
