Description

  • During the 1930s Henschel were tasked to design and build a ground attack aircraft that could provide support to ground troops.
  • This led to the creation of the robust Henschel Hs-123 biplane, which was supplied to flying Squadrons in 1935.
  • The first operational deployment of the aircraft took place during the Spanish Civil War to the Condor Legion squadrons.
  • Due to its 880 hp BMW radial engine the Hs-123 was able to reach a top speed of 340 km/h and could carry a large offensive payload.
  • During the Second World War, despite its proven reliability, the rapid technological evolution of aircraft design, engines and performance relegated the Hs-123 to supporting roles.
