The Heinkel He 112 was a German single-seat fighter designed by Siegfried and Walter Günter. It was one of four aircraft that competed for the Luftwaffe's 1933 fighter contract and came second behind the Messerschmitt Bf 109. The first prototype flew in September 1935. Because the Bf 109 was already being mass-produced, the Air Ministry saw no need for another similar aircraft, so only small numbers served with the Luftwaffe for a short time and some were built for other countries, with around 100 completed in all. The production type used a Junkers Jumo 210 liquid-cooled V-12 piston engine and followed Heinkel's earlier He 49 and He 51 fighters.
