1/48 He 111H-6 German World War II Bomber Kit ICM 48262

He 111H-6 In the early 1930s, the idea of ​​a high-speed bomber capable of outrunning modern fighters appeared in the world. One of the objectifications of this concept was the He 111 twin-engine bomber, developed by the German company Heinkel Flugzeugwerke AG. From May 1941, He 111H-6 aircraft were produced with liquid-cooled Jumo 211F-2 engines of increased power, with larger VS 11 wooden propellers and more powerful armament. This variant could carry SC 1800 kg bombs or two LT F5b torpedoes externally. The He 111H-6 was the most produced variant of the Heinkel medium bomber. By the end of 1942, approximately 1,800 aircraft had been produced. The He 111H-6 was used on all fronts as level bombers, torpedo bombers, reconnaissance aircraft, transports and minelayers.
