Early He111 Variants in Luftwaffe Service |
Ok people, stick with me... this is gonna get ugly. :) I've broken this down into several different pages to cover the various and sundry subtypes, as photos seem to be cropping up left and right now.
| This is where it all began... He111 V1, W.Nr. 715 D-ABAP. This photo scanned from the June 2002 Aeroplane is the only known shot of the V1 wearing its civil registration codes. | |

Another photo of the V1 in the more familiar overall grey scheme, with an unidentified group of people blocking our view of the mid-fuselage. Shame the photographer couldn't shoo them out of the way! :) |
| D-AOKE... what is it? It is speculated within the Aeroplane article that this may possibly be a D model, although production documents only show one D model based on the early B version was completed, W.Nr. 1436. Later production D models were based on the glass-nosed P variant. |

The histories of the subsequent prototypes are covered on the Lufthansa page, as V2, V3, and V4 were all earmarked for Lufthansa service.
