The Heinkel He 118 was a German-made dive bomber with a low wing structure with an inverted gull wing and a classic tail. The drive was provided by a single 880 HP Daimler-Benz DB600C piston engine. The prototype flight took place in 1935 or 1936. In total, only 15 aircraft of this type were produced, including prototypes. The Heinkel He 118 was created in response to the Luftwaffe's demand for a completely new dive bomber. Its main competitor in the fight for supplies to the German aviation turned out to be Junkers Ju 87 Stuka. The first He 118s used British Rolls Royce Buzaard engines and only later they were changed to DB600C. The first comparative tests of the He 118 and Ju 87 prototypes took place in 1936. The Junkers machine was much better in them. In subsequent tests, the He 118 suffered a disaster in which Ernest Udet took part, which definitely determined the victory of the Ju 87. The only foreign recipient was Japan, which purchased two He 118s, and after the experience gained from their very intensive use, started the production of the Yokosuka D4Y aircraft. The planes remaining in the Third Reich went to aviation schools.
