That's right! The Russians did buy at least one... I imagine the thousands of pages of info are in said language though right? Maybe we should be asking our Japanese friends also as they had one also right?

Jim, the Soviets purchased six in October 1939:
V1 (WkNmr 1901)
V2 (WkNmr 1902)
V4 (WkNmr 1903 <- not a typo)
V5 (WkNmr 3001)
V6 (WkNmr 3002)
V7 (WkNmr 3003)

The Japanese purchased three, all being the D-0 series, which were designated the AXHei and were delivered in May 1940.

In a conversation about the Japanese purchased He100s in another thread, Shinpachi had some great information about a Heinkel engineer who was in Japan and assisted them with the He100 and other projects.
 
Taken over from KLM I believe. At first I thought it might be the Fokker T8W, the twin-engine float plane, until I re-read the clues and noticed it had four engines - this silly Fokker would have given the wrong answer !

OK, have a stab at this one.
