... that is not true. one of my relatives was in the Luftwaffe during the Battle of Britain and he said they were screaming like hell when diving!
As long as those birds were in use, these screaming "Jericho-Trumpets", as they were called, were characteristik for the Stuka!
And it`s also not true that they were of no use. The psychological effect on enemy soldiers was considerable. I was talking to some older polish and russian people who experienced Stuka attacks and survived them. They said, you will never ever forget that sound again!
Sorry to correct you
