An ambitious long-range project of 1943, the Junkers Ju 390 combined six-engine power with substantial crew and equipment capacity. Its ten-crew layout managed complex long-range operations, while the massive 50.3-metre span and 505 km/h speed enabled strategic patrolling and bombing. The design represented German aspirations for true intercontinental capability.
