Heinkel He 112 is a German fighter aircraft developed for the Luftwaffe, featuring a single-engine, all-metal design, with a distinctive low-wing profile. The aircraft is known for losing out to the Messerschmitt Bf 109, which limited its production to just 98 units. However, the history of the He 112 is fascinating due to its international career—it served not only in the German Luftwaffe, but also in the air forces of Spain (with the last flights until 1953), Japan (as a training and research platform), Romania (actively participating in battles against the USSR in 1941–1942), and Hungary. In 1941, Romanian He 112s took part in intensive fighting on the Eastern Front and from 1943 served as training aircraft.
