Hamburger Flugzeugbau Ha 137 |
 | | The Hamburger Flugzeugbau's design team initiated work on a dive-bomber late in 1933. |
 | | This was to have had a BMW XV engine, but, as this power plant was not available, the design was modified to take the BMW-built Pratt and Whitney Hornet (which later became the BMW 132) and redesignated P 6a. |
 | | This project designation was eventually changed to Ha 137, and work was initiated on the construction of two prototypes powered by the Hornet, the Ha 137V1 (D-IXAX) and 137V2 (D-IBGI), and one prototype powered by the Rolls-Royce Kestrel V, the Ha 137V3 (D-IZIQ) or P 6b. |
