Heinkel HD 33

Military Aircraft

The Heinkel HD 33 was a two-seat biplane scout bomber developed by Ernst Heinkel Flugzeugwerke. It was first fitted with an Armstrong Siddeley Puma inline engine and first flew in 1928, but the initial flight tests showed a disappointing aircraft. It was therefore returned to the manufacturer and refitted with a BMW VI engine of 450 kilowatts and a new radiator, and redesignated HD 33a, with a wingspan of 15 metres and a top speed of 230 kilometres per hour. After flight tests in this form the aircraft was to go to the German flight test centre at Lipetsk, but the German military abandoned the idea and the HD 33 remained a prototype only. Plans for a civil version never materialised.
