Survivability and armour

  • No armour plating
  • No armour glazing
  • Engines and all fuel tanks in wings

Armaments

Offensive armament

Main article: MG 15 (7.92 mm)

The Ju 88 A-1 is armed with:

  • 1 x 7.92 mm MG 15 machine gun, nose-mounted (375 rpg)

Suspended armament

Main articles: SC50JA (50 kg), SC250JA (250 kg), SC500K (500 kg)

The Ju 88 A-1 can be outfitted with the following ordnance:

  • 10 x 50 kg SC50JA bombs (500 kg total)
  • 28 x 50 kg SC50JA bombs (1,400 kg total)
  • 2 x 250 kg SC250JA bombs + 28 x 50 kg SC50JA bombs (1,900 kg total)
  • 4 x 250 kg SC250JA bombs (1,000 kg total)
  • 2 x 500 kg SC500K bombs (1,000 kg total)

Defensive armament

Main article: MG 15 (7.92 mm)

The Ju 88 A-1 is defended by:

  • 1 x 7.92 mm MG 15 machine gun, dorsal turret (600 rpg)
  • 1 x 7.92 mm MG 15 machine gun, ventral turret (525 rpg)

Usage in battles

Describe the tactics of playing in the aircraft, the features of using aircraft in a team and advice on tactics. Refrain from creating a "guide" - do not impose a single point of view, but instead, give the reader food for thought. Examine the most dangerous enemies and give recommendations on fighting them. If necessary, note the specifics of the game in different modes (AB, RB, SB).

Pros and cons

Pros:

  • Has an offensive forward-firing machine gun.
  • Ability to dive bomb, equipped with air brakes.
  • Carries a decent max load of 1,900 kg compared to contemporaries, third highest payload before the Ju-88 A-4 and the He 111 H-3.
  • Lots of armament options.
  • Airframe can withstand high speed during a dive.
  • Carrying the maximum payload doesn't have that much penalty in overall performance.
  • Very useful in precision bombing.
  • Can outrun lower-end fighters.
  • The 50 kg bombs are very efficient in taking out individual ground targets.

Cons:

  • Defensive armaments are poor.
  • Stock bomb load is inadequate.
  • Payload is inferior to that of the Ju 88 A-4.

History

Describe the history of the creation and combat usage of the aircraft in more detail than in the introduction. If the historical reference turns out to be too long, take it to a separate article, taking a link to the article about the vehicle and adding a block "/History" (example: https://wiki.warthunder.com/(Vehicle-name)/History) and add a link to it here using the main template. Be sure to reference text and sources by using <ref></ref>, as well as adding them at the end of the article with <references />. This section may also include the vehicle's dev blog entry (if applicable) and the in-game encyclopedia description (under === In-game description ===, also if applicable).

Media

Excellent additions to the article would be video guides, screenshots from the game, and photos.
