The Heinkel HD 15 was a single-engine biplane seaplane developed by the German company Heinkel Flugzeugwerke in the late 1920s, and it never went beyond the prototype stage. It was a wooden floatplane with a central hull holding three separate open cockpits, the pilot in front of the leading edge of the lower wing and two places behind for passengers or mail. It was built to explore catapult launching from liner decks: a catapult was installed on the transatlantic liner Bremen of Norddeutscher Lloyd, and trials took place towards the end of 1928 without the aircraft entering regular service. The design nevertheless formed the basis of the Heinkel HD 55, which went into service with the Soviet Navy. It had a crew of three, a length of 10.7 metres and a wingspan of 12.43 metres, and its single Gnome-Rhone Jupiter radial engine produced 340 kilowatts.
