    		The Junkers Ju 390 was of a long range heavy bomber aircraft design. It was made to fulfill the German ambition to attack the eastern coast of the USA. It is also called as "The New York Bomber". Ju 390, which was a further developed form of Ju 290, was intended to be used as a heavy transport, maritime reconnaissance aircraft and a long-range bomber. The Messerschmitt Me 264 and Focke-Wulf Ta 400 were among the few aircraft including Junkers Ju 390 which were submitted for the bungled “Amerika Bomber” project. It is one of the largest aircraft to be built in Germany.
