Before starting, i'd like to thank Eswube for his inestimable help on this drawing. Without it, it would have not been possible.

  -Ju 86 K-1: Export version for South Africa and Sweden.
  -Ju 86 K-2: Export version for Hungary.

  -Ju 86 K-13: Swedish-built bomber aircraft, fitted with Swedish or Polish-built Pegasus engines.
  -Ju 86 P-1: High-altitude bomber version, fitted with two Jumo 207 diesels. Fitted with turbochargers.
  -Ju 86 P-2: Photo reconnaissance version, still equipped for bombing. Same engines as P-1.
  -Ju 86 R-1: Reconnaissance version. Retained 207 engines.
  -Ju 86 R-2: Bomber version.
  -Ju 86 R-3: Powered by two Jumo 208 engines. (Not drawn because of lack of sources)
  -Ju 86Z series: Civil export models
  -Ju 186: Proposed four-engined high-altitude bomber aircraft. Not built. (Check the never built thread)
  -Ju 286: Proposed six-engined high-altitude bomber aircraft. Not built. (Not drawn because of lack of sources)
  -K 85: A proposed torpedo bomber version for the Swedish Air Force. (Not drawn because of lack of sources)

A brief note about the Bolivian bomber version: It's left kind of unfinished because the photo sources of that model serving under Bolivian colours are rather scarce.
Also, even if it goes against my own criterion, i decided to draw some airplanes with the landing gear down because... why not?

Well done on the JU-86 series Naixoterk!

Well done, Naixoterk! Very impressive.
My only nitpick is the gun you are using, because I drew it back in the days as the Lewis gun. I also drew the MG15 gun that is what actually ju.86 was equipped with; you can find it here. But the choice is yours of course
