Set the scene.
The site called JU88 South preserves another German bomber in Maltese waters. The Ju88 was a versatile aircraft used throughout the Second World War.
Here’s the twist.
The wreck sits upright, with damage around its nose but much of the structure in good condition. Heritage Malta suggests a controlled ditching.
Why it still matters.
Tail damage also raises the possibility of an Allied aircraft’s attack. These are interpretations of surviving evidence, not a fully identified combat report. Keep the question mark beside the reconstruction.
