HEINKEL He 111 J-1 HEINKEL He 111 J-1 DELIVERY PHOTOS The Heinkel He 111 J story. On 7. April 1936 it was declared by the German Government that aircraft with wheel undercarriages were from now on permitted to be operated by the Kriegsmarine (German Navy) as bombers, recce and torpedo bombers. Shortly after an order for 120 He 111 J torpedo bombers was given to Heinkel. In a record timeframe from 4/5-1936 to 4/4-1937 a new factory was built at Oranienburg NW of Berlin with a capacity to complete 32 He 111s a month, but soon 2 aircraft per day were rolling out. The He 111 J was, except for the engines, a He 111F which also incorporated the new wing with straight wing leading and trailing edges. The engines of the F models which were diesel engines were replaced with 2 Daimler-Benz DB 600G with non-retractable coolers. They developed 950HP giving a max. speed of 305 km/h and a march speed of 280 km/h. Endurance was 4 hours with reserves. Armament was the standard German bomber armament of three MG 15’s situated in the nose, fuselage top and underneath the fuselage in a retractable bin (which when lowered reduced the speed of the aircraft by 25 km/h. Four crew manned the aircraft. The 120 German aircraft served mainly on reconnaissance duties in the North and Baltic Seas where the main user unit was the “küstenfliegergruppe 806 which had 3 staffeln with about 33 aircraft at the time. The unit converted to Ju 88 bombers in May 1941. The He 111 J was never used to launch torpedoes in its German service. Later the glass nosed version He 111 H was modified for torpedo bombing duties. In March 1937 a He 111F-0 prototype had been demonstrated to Turkey and soon in the same year an order for 24 aircraft was received. The reason for the Turkish order being of the J model shall probably be seen in that the Turkish army wanted their aircraft to be equipped with gasoline burning engines and the factory had ample capacity to deliver the J model with such engines. There is no evidence that the Turkish aircraft had any torpedo carrying capacity. On October 17. 1937 delivery of the 24 Turkish He 111 J-1 began with four departing Oranienburg via Sofia to Istanbul and that year 18 were received in batches of 4 or 6 with the remaining six in early 1938. Four aircraft companies of the 1st Air Regiment at Eskişehir were issued with the aircraft replacing obsolete Breguet Br.19s. Already in 1940, however, the aircraft were concentrated in two companies. When in late 1944 Baltimore V bombers replaced the Heinkels a II Batalion of the 1.Regiment was reformed into a two company strong “Strategic Bomber/reconnaissance unit with one company of 8 Heinkels and 5 Convair B-24Ds and a second with Martin 139WTs. Those Heinkels also participated in a mapping operation of Turkey. When the He 111 J-1’s were withdrawn in late 1945 eight were still serviceable!

From the airfield of Duxford to the skies over southern England, follow the course of the battle and discover the stories of the people who were there. Scramble Paul Day 2005 Scramble is a bronze maquette model for part of the Battle of Britain Monument in central London. The monument features many scenes relating to military and civilian life during the Battle of Britain. The centre piece, Scramble, shows pilots running toward their aircraft after receiving orders to intercept an incoming air attack. ZONE 1 Defeat in France May – June 1940 Britain and France declared war on Germany on 3 September 1939, two days after the country invaded Poland. Several months later, on 10 May 1940, Germany attacked Luxembourg, Belgium, the Netherlands and France in a rapid ‘Blitzkrieg’ offensive. During a brief, but costly campaign, Britain deployed multiple Royal Air Force (RAF) squadrons to France. The aircraft were sent to support the British Expeditionary Force fighting on the ground and to counter Germany’s powerful air force, the Luftwaffe. Within 6 weeks, France had fallen. The remaining British, French and other Allied troops retreated to the coast, where over half a million were evacuated. The majority departed from the port of Dunkirk. On 22 June, France surrendered to Germany. Britain had lost its main ally and now found itself open to invasion. · 3 September 1939: Britain and France declare war on Germany · 10 May

    heritage Article Comparison of Aluminum Alloys from Aircraft of Four Nations Involved in the WWII Conflict Using Multiscale Analyses and Archival Study Toufa Ouissi 1,2,*, Gilles Collaveri 3, Philippe Sciau 1, Jean-Marc Olivier 2 and Magali Brunet 1,* 1 CEMES, UPR 8011 CNRS, 31055 Toulouse, France; [email protected] 2 FRAMESPA, UMR 5136, University of Toulouse Jean-Jaurès, 31058 Toulouse, France; [email protected] 3 Aerocherche, 31700 Blagnac, France; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] (T.O.); [email protected] (M.B.) Received: 30 September 2019; Accepted: 14 November 2019; Published: 22 November 2019 Abstract: Aluminum alloys are very interesting witnesses of industrial and technical development. The first ever developed was Duralumin, a light metal with good mechanical properties. In the 1930s, the rise of nationalism stimulated research and development, generating various aluminum alloys. This work reports the comparison of two versions of aluminum alloys, which were found in collected parts of WWII crashed aircraft from four nations: a Messerschmitt Bf 109 (DE), a Dewoitine D.520 (FR), and a P-51 Mustang (USA) and an Avro Lancaster (United Kingdom). The first version of alloy with magnesium content below or equal to 1 wt.% and the second version with higher magnesium content (1.5 wt.%), were identified as respectively AlCuMg1, AlCuMg2 in Germany; Duralumin, Duralumin F.R. in France; Hiduminium DU Brand, Hiduminium 72 in the UK and 17S, 24S in the USA. This study uses a multiscale approach based on historical research complimented by laboratory analyses of materials directly collected on the crashed aircraft.

Although it was comparable with the British Hawker Hurricane and early models of the German Messerschmitt Bf 109, it could not hold its own against the more powerful Bf 109E and Bf 110C. The MS.406 was the mainstay of the Armée de l’Air during the ‘Phoney War’, but it had begun to be phased out in favour of the more potent Dewoitine D.520 at the turn of 1940. However, owing to the limited capacities of the French aircraft industry, five of the twelve units that started the war with Moranes had to carry on until the bitter end with the same type.

    INTRODUCTION Due to restrictions placed on Germany following World War1, military aircraft production was prohibited, especially any type of bomber. In 1934, Siegfried and Walter Gunter drew up a design for a medium-sized, twin-engined airliner for Heinkel Flugzeuwerke. Presented and disguised as an “airliner”, with the rise of a new “order” in Germany, the real purpose of the design was already known to the newly-formed “Luftwaffe”. The prototype first flew on 24th. February 1935 and was immediately praised for its high speed capability. Before the War, in a touch of irony, Reginald Mitchell, the designer of the Supermarine Spitfire and what was to become the HE-111’s nemesis, visited the Heinkel works and was impressed by the eliptical shapes used in the flying surfaces of the HE-111. This was his inspiration in designing that most beautiful of aeroplane wings and a major contribution to the Spitfire’s domination of the skies across Europe and beyond. Promoted as the fastest airliner in the World, with a top speed in excess of 250 MPH. , development of the design continued as a medium bomber as the dark clouds of war gathered and other manufacturers like Junkers and Dornier joined the drive to equip the Luftwaffe with the best aircraft. Originally powered by BMW engines, the early HE-111s were slower than their Junkers counterparts. A change to Daimler Benz DB 600 engines saw a marked increase in power and speed. The early models had a conventional “stepped” cockpit design, the characteristic bullet-nose shape was not to appear until much later.
