The link below provides a full report and pictures of one of the fastest aircraft of its class, but never went into production. We are talking about the Heinkel He 119. If it had been produced and participated in WW2 its performance would have changed in some way the course of the war? What do you think?

Looking at the data on Wikipedia, I doubt it would have influenced the war in any way. It was fast, but with a tiny bomb load it would have had negligible impact. With the limited visibility it would have been very restricted for tactical use and the coupled engines were likely to be a maintenance nightmare. An interesting technical approach, but not a war winner.

Coupled engines and evaporative cooling never worked.Its an aircraft a bit like the Me 209.

What a great looking machine and I thought the DO17 was known as the Flying Pencil!
