Heinkel He-280

30.0k Dumpworks  8.9 years ago

This aircraft was Germany's second turbojet aircraft built by Heinkel, It showed promise as a good fighter, though it had a small undercarriage and would not be able to take off from dirt runways and the engines that powered the Heinkel-280 had many problems and instead RLM decided to accept the Me-262
