Heinkel He-111 P Bomber
The He 111P featured the upgraded Daimler-Benz DB 601A-1 engine, with a redesigned nose section for improved visibility and aerodynamics. It reached speeds of 475 km/h (295 mph) and carried a full bomb load reducing speed to 300 km/h (190 mph). The P-1 variant, entering service in 1939, had two DB 601Aa engines, self-sealing fuel tanks, and improved radio equipment. The P-2 variant, with stronger armor and additional armament, had a maximum range of 2,100 km (1,300 mi). The P-3 was equipped with the same engines and designed for takeoff with a land catapult. The P-4 variant had varied load capabilities, accommodating external bombs or fuel tanks. The P-5 was mainly used for training and meteorological missions. Production shifted to H versions due to engine priorities for fighter production. The remaining P-6s were repurposed as heavy glider tugs, and the series was terminated in 1940. The P-9 was an export variant for the Hungarian Air Force.
