Only surviving 'D' model on display at the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force with a Fritz-X guided bomb under the fuselage. This Fernaufklärer Ju-88 was completed in June 1943. The recce D-1 was similar to the A-4 bomber powered by Jumo 211J engines, but had no dive brakes. It had cameras behind frame 15 and additional fuel tanks inside and under the fuselage which increased the range to 5,000 km. The aircraft was delivered to Romania, an ally of Germany. In July 1943 a lone Romanian pilot defected to Cyprus. The Ju-88 was later handed over by the RAF to the USAAF for testing.

Given RAF serial HK959 and flown to Alexandria then handed over to the USAAF and ferried by air via Acension to Wright Field in 10.43. Placed on display in Luftwaffe colours, which were later changed to those shown here, before being restored to Romanian AF livery; now inside the USAFM
