Re: He 111 V28, V29 & V30

Thanks for the info.
Would it not be more likely that:
He 111H-2 W.Nr.6871 PB+NB sam,e as for V29.
He 111H-3 W.Nr. 6870 DB+NA no tasks reported.
would be either PB+NB, PB+NA, or DB+NB, DB+NA (so a typo in the record for one of them?)
Also, both are He111H-3

Thanks, everyone.

Since the document I was quoting says that the three protoypes are fitted with the Jumo 211 D, I think it's pretty clear that the three H-models are the ones in question.

Both are "interpolated" made before sequential Stkz. were ordered (late 18.10.1939) and such quirks in this period are known and one must be careful. Further report on them three (RJ+NE / DB+NA / PB+NB Weser conversions on F 5 Torpedoes and LMA 3 and LMB 3 mines) is in KdE Rechlin report {T177 R39 P842 (#3730367) and T321 R57 P56 is Tr List as in RL 36/294} curiously one is said with DB 601 A engines but not Jumo 211 (something is suspect here) and just one is stated V-muster
Ju 88 as LT aircraft (known already by 06.39) were stated cancelled before 06.05.40 (its on the missing page - and elsewhere, RM 7/2386 P100) to reappear with two more He 111 H-5 W.Nr. 3887 and 3890 in 1941. Ju 88 does not need have been assigned any designation if not built.
