Designed by Walter and Siegfried Günter of Ernst Heinkel Flugzeugwerke company and first flown in September 1935. The He 112 was a low wing monoplane fighter . It's obscurity is likely best understood by considering the fame of the plane it lost the competition to, the Messerschmitt Bf 109. The early He 112 models submitted for testing were inferior to the Messerschmitt Bf 109; they were a blend of old and new features that couldn't compete with the all-modern 109. The He 112 was not as successful as the Bf 109 but it was used by the armies of Germany, Romania, Japan, Hungary and Spain.
