In the beginning of the 1930s, it appeared in the world that there was an idea of a high-speed bomber that could outstrip contemporary fighters. One of the objectifications of this conception became the twin-engine bomber He 111, designed by the German Heinkel Flugzeugwerke AG company.
Since December 1942, it has produced He 111H-16 planes with liquid-cooled Jumo 211F-2 engines of increased power, with VS 11 wooden, wider-horde propellers and more powerful armament. This variant could carry up to 3000 kg of bombs internally and externally.
The He 111H-16 was the last mass-produced variant of Heinkel’s medium bomber. It produced approximately 1155 aircraft up to the end of 1943. The 111H-16s saw service on all fronts as night bombers, transports, and glider tugs.
