| High-altitude reconnaissance bomber, developed from the Hs 128.
The A-06 and A-07 pre-series aircraft had a wing span of 29m, and
turbosupercharged DB 605 engines. They could reach 15500m.
The Hs 130E was powered by two Daimler-Benz DB 603 engines, which
were supplied with a air by a compressor, driven by a DB 605. This
configuration was known as 'HZ Anlage'. In 1944 the programme
was cancelled.

| David Cooper, e-mail, 18.03.2015 15:43 The Antares 1 /72 Henschel Hs 130 E V3 prototype is now available! Just received my kit yesterday. reply | | Peter, e-mail, 16.04.2012 03:52 Oh, and there were only about 5 planes of this type. Very effecive against masses tanks, huh?
These were planes of the E-Series with DB 605 T. Daimler Benz had massive problems getting their high altitude engine ready. The JuMo 222 had the same problem. So the whole project was cancelled.
Like many others. reply | | Peter, e-mail, 16.04.2012 03:43 The Henschel Hs 130 was planned and designed to be a high altitude bomber. And nothing else! Where do you guys get your informations?
It was the Henschel Hs 129 which was desigend as a "Schlachtflieger" and was equipped with sevearl anti tank weapons! You could say, it was the Grandpa of the A -10.
Peter from Germany reply | | Peter, e-mail, 12.03.2012 02:15 I don't know, but it is likely the aircraft was designed for high altitude recce, but later plans were made to use it as a tank-buster, as the German war machine got very desperate. Such as when they used He-177s in low-level bombing of tank columns. reply | |
