Heinkel He 111 Walk Around
(Paperback)
SS 25070

by Ron Mackay.
The Heinkel 111 saw service on all Germany’s military fronts in
the European Theater of World War II. The He 111 entered the war
as a medium bomber, supporting Wehrmacht ground campaigns. After
the tide in the conflict had turned against the Reich, and air
superiority had been achieved by the Soviet Union and the western

Allies, the Heinkel 111 was largely relegated to transport
functions. This iconic warplane had its origins as a cutting-edge

civil airliner in the mid-1930s. But war was looming and before
long it was adapted for use as a bomber. The first mass-produced
versions, the He 111-E and He 111-F, served in the Condor Legion
with Francisco Franco’s Nationalist forces in the Spanish Civil
War, paving the way to further military engagement once World War

II broke out. Although produced in large numbers and exported to
many countries before and during the war, few examples of the He
111 survive today. This walk around features detailed
photographic images of the He 111-P1 restored and preserved in
Norway, and the He 111-H20 on display in the RAF museum in
Britain.
Illustrated with 228 photographs, detailed line drawings, and
color profiles. 88 pages. Hardcover ISBN = 978-0-89747-693-5.
