While Ernst Heinkel and his company are remembered chiefly for his long-serving He111

Another interesting aircraft.
367 mph using early model DB606A coupled engine.
Crew of 3.
Excellent range.
Worth considering during 1940 for the new German night fighter force?

It looks a bit like a slightly more elegant Fairey Battle.

Ouch ! Damned with faint praise indeed methinks.

Or a fast medium/light bomber in the vein of the Mosquito or the Mixmaster (Two coupled engines providing power to a single airscrew). Nice model BTW. Is it scratch-built? Injection molded or resin kit?

Possibly explains why it wasn't adopted for service, then! It probably did what the Battle did, but more elegantly!

I have no idea. Google for He-119 and it's one of the pictures that are available.
