The Heinkel HD 43, short for Heinkel Doppeldecker 43, was a prototype German fighter aircraft of the early 1930s. It was a single-engined, single-seat biplane designed to meet a secret Reichswehr requirement for a single-seat fighter, with two-bay wooden wings and a steel-tube fuselage, and it was powered by a 750 horsepower BMW VI engine. The single prototype flew in 1931. It was evaluated against the Arado Ar 65, the Arado was selected, and no production of the Heinkel followed. Its maximum speed was 322 kilometres per hour, its wingspan was 10 metres, and it had provision for two machine guns.
