Comments:
This aircraft was designed to replace the He 46, the British engineed prototype flying in early 1935. The performance was acceptable but little emphasis was put on the design for production. Henschel was told to develope it further. Eventually 7 Hs 122B-0 aircraft were produced, the 4th being used to build the prototype of the Hs 126.
