The Heinkel He-51 is a German single-engine biplane fighter, training light stormtrooper and mixed seaplane. The prototype's flight took place in 1933, and the machine entered service in 1935. The He-51 was used in combat during the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939). In the course of the conflict, it turned out to be a machine much worse than the Soviet I-15 and I-16, it was also over 100 km / h slower than SB bombers. From 1938, planes were withdrawn from line units and transferred to aviation schools. He 51 seaplane was built in 1934. The modified landing gear had floats instead of wheels. Just like the fighter version, the seaplanes were sent back to training units before the outbreak of the war. In total, about 700 aircraft of this type were built, most of them in the "B" version. Technical data: length: 8.4m, wingspan: 11m, height: 3.2m, maximum speed: 330km / h, rate of climb: 11.9m / s, maximum range: 570km, maximum ceiling 7,700m, armament: fixed-2 7.92mm MG17 machine guns, suspended - up to 60 kg of bombs
