The Heinkel HD 41 was a reconnaissance aircraft developed in
Germany in the 1920s.
Design and development
The HD 41a, equipped with a
Siemens Jupiter VI of 520 hp (390 kW), paid particular attention to the flight characteristics of the aircraft, so as to add, if necessary, the machine guns to transform the apparatus into a fighter.[1]
Powered by a 520 hp (390 kW)
BMW VI 7.3Zu; two built. The first aircraft, (c/n 363, D-1011), was converted to be the first pre-production
Heinkel He 45A and the second HD 41c, (c/n 364, D-2064), was converted to be the prototype
Heinkel He 45 with a new registration (D-ILEU)
