The Heinkel III was designed as a civil airliner, but in early WWII it became the Luftwaffe's principal bomber. Heinkel's used BMW and Daimler Benz motors of up to 1000s hp each. This German bomber was used in Poland, Norway, Denmark, France and during the Battle of Britain. Maximum speed was 227 mph and its range was 1200 miles. Armaments included 1-20 mm machine gun, 37.92 mm guns plus 1,000 kg of bombs. Designed in direct violation of the Treaty of Versailles, the Heinkel He 111 first flew on February 24, 1935. Masquerading as a transport aircraft, the He 111 was actually a fast medium bomber that went on to become the most prolific Luftwaffe bomber used during the early part of WWII. During its early service career, the He 111 had the distinction of being one of the fastest aircraft in the world, with speeds exceeding 250 mph. It was also versatile, serving as a medium bomber, strategic bomber and as a torpedo bomber. By late 1944 the Luftwaffe halted bomber production, and the He 111 became a transport aircraft. © Copyright 2003-2024 The Flying Mule, Inc.
