He-111-H6

[Michael Turner]

Hello:

I am trying to get some information on this version of the He-111-H6. I have gone through some books that I have but have come up empty so I hope that I can find the answer here.

From what I have found so far, some versions had what they called an early style of propeller blades. The only thing that I did come up with was a model kit that: http://www.hlj.com/product/HSG00803 .

Assuming that this is accurate or not, I guess these early bladed He-111's were used in North Africa as indicated by the decals that come in the kit? What I would like to try and find out is what was the time-line and battle/campaign if known as to when this particular version with the early propeller blades would have been used at besides in
North Africa? Also, any squadrons would be helpful too.

Thank you in advance.

Michael

the he-111h-6 was exactly the same as the h-2. it was just modified with a mg-151 in the nose and made to carry torpedoes

I found this photo of an He 111H-6 (call sign 1H+GP) stationed in Italy during the summer of 1943:
