Welcome to War and Tactics!    War and Tactics Forum is currently undergoing some modifications that might disable features you are used to. This is unabvoidable as we have to update the forum engine to a new structure that is incompatible with many of the features we had used so far. The good news: WaT will be more secure and stable, and most of the features we uninstalled will be a natural part of the new structure anyway. For the rest we will be looking for solutions.

Luftlande geschwader (air landing wing) 1940

HQ
I Airlanding Squadron with 3 flights (nrs 1,2,3) of 4 JU 52's.
II Airlanding Squadron with 3 flights (nrs 4,5,6) of 4 JU 52's.
III Airlanding Squadron of 3 flights (nrs 7,8,9) of 4 JU 52's.

Often extra planes were added to a wing to carry additional guns (20 mm AAA or recoiles 75 and 105mm), motorcycles and Kubelwagens.
Later in the war the troops found out they could strap the motorcycles and other stuff between the landinggear under the fuselage of their Junkers.
