Here is another diesel powered medium bomber made by the Germans in WWII.

• Ju86D: a diesel powered medium bomber that fought in Spain, but was
phased out of the Luftwaffe. Other versions with gasoline engines
flew longer for other nations.

• Ju86G: last version combat bomber version of the Ju86. The change
to a stronger engine did not compensate for the aircraft's other
shortcomings compared to the He111 and the Ju88 prototypes.

• Ju86P: stretching the diesel engine to its limits, this version
became a hi-altitude strategic recon aircraft flying above the reach
of most fighters.

• Ju86R: larger wing, higher altitude upgrade of the Ju86P.


The war in Spain was not yet WW II.
Recons are not bombers or fighters.
