Den Heinkel He 100 was a German pre-World War II fighter aircraft design from Heinkel. Although it proved to be one of the fastest fighter aircraft in the world at the time of its development, the design was not ordered into series production. Approximately 19 prototypes and pre-production examples were built. None are known to have survived the war. The reason for the He 100 failing to reach production status is mostly unknown. Officially, the Luftwaffe rejected the He 100 to concentrate single-seat fighter development on the Messerschmitt Bf 109. Following the adoption of the Bf 109 and Messerschmitt Bf 110 as the Luftwaffe’s standard fighter types, the Ministry of Aviation (the Reichsluftfahrtministerium or RLM) announced a “rationalization” policy that placed fighter development at Messerschmitt and bomber development at Heinkel.

Flere oplysninger:

The Heinkel He 100 was a German fighter aircraft prototype that was developed before World War II. It was designed by Walter and Siegfried Günter, who aimed to create a fast and easy-to-build plane that could outperform the Messerschmitt Bf 109, which was chosen by the Luftwaffe as its standard fighter. The He 100 had a sleek and streamlined shape, with a novel surface evaporation cooling system that eliminated the need for a bulky radiator. The plane achieved several speed records in 1938 and 1939, reaching up to 746.6 km/h with a Daimler Benz DB 601 engine. However, the He 100 was never ordered into mass production, as the Luftwaffe preferred to focus on the Bf 109 and the Bf 110. Only about 19 prototypes and pre-production models were built, some of which were sold to the Soviet Union and Japan. The He 100 was also used for propaganda purposes by the Nazi regime, which claimed that it was a new and superior fighter called the Heinkel He 113.
