In 1946 a heavy bomber having the type designation EF-132 and a mo 1f _;;ation
of t his type which was to be used as a reconna:Lsance plans were de z .grad by
the Special Constructions Bureau (SKTB) No,, 1 in Dessau? A mock-up r...el
of the aircraft was made.*
2. Descriptive data:
sw The aircraft was designed as a semi-high-wing monoplane with se;:;; back
wings and tail assembly. In order to meet the range specificat.,-r?:
demanded, the plane was fitted with six JUr110-012 engines mounted ... the
wings. The wing thickness required in the jet engine area was :t. fl.ned
by increasing the profile thickness from 16 to 20 percent. For ,,e-.eons
of better stability and servicing, the jet engines were ultimratr>1y
placed on rails, which made it possible to ovll them out of the
b. The aircraft was designed with a tricycle landing 'ear$ the nose k.r3ei
retracting into a recess under the pressurized cabin. The main 1i.ev'f:tin g
gear, in tandem, was fitted inboard of the inside jet engine, " -.Al.
arrangement of the landing gear was known from various large airer?:tt
types designed at the Junkers Aircraft Plant. The ::ecquired tiro s res
of 1.80 meters in diameter were, however, not available at that
A second solution was therefore provided. This verzion was char.,-.c?.9ri.zed
by the utilization of smaller wheels and an auxilliary landing
mounted between the two main wheels which was jettisoned after t_1.=: off.
The Junkers Plant acquired experience with multiple-wheel landing ears by
the construction. of the Ju-390 type aircraft,
c. The four-man crew** was housed in a spacious pressurized cabin nose. The shape of this cabin was similar to that of the Ju-2E" 3x;: Ju-86
aircraft.
d. The plane was to be provided with three remote-controlled gun st L5-:}ns to
be delivered by the Dorsig firm. Tv.o gun syations each with tr~x: 3C yam
cannon: were located just behind the pressurized cabin. These ?,tuna. stations
had a complete free area for firing except for dead spaces of the #::Al

barreled machine gun was mounted aft of the tail assembly, Weapons
having effective range directly to the front were not provided*
eo The mounting of the jot engines in the wings and the arrangement of the
landing gear made it impossible to carry sizable amounts of fuel in the
wings. The bulk of the fuel was therefore stored in special rubber
containers*
