Heinkel He 100D-1 "Propaganda Jäger He113"

Heinkel He 100D-1 "Propaganda fighter He 113"

In the competition for the Luftwaffe's standard fighter, the Heinkel He 100D was flown in comparative flights against the Messerschmitt Bf 109.
In the end, the Bf 109 emerged victorious, but since the He 100D surpassed it in some respects, it also entered production, albeit in a very small number of aircraft.
These were later used by German Nazi propaganda to establish the legend of a new Luftwaffe fighter called the Heinkel He 113.
The He 100D was given emblems of non-existent units and posed for photographers and filmmakers.
In reality, the aircraft served to defend the Heinkel factory.
