	Heinkel He 51 - Germany
		While the sleek Heinkel He 51 looked like it had the "Right Stuff," unfortunately this was not the case as the Heinkel He-51 turned out to be a completely orthodox biplane of undistinguished performance.
		It had been hoped that the He-51 would exceed or match opponents such as its contemporary, the Hawker Fury powered by a Kestrel engine, but it was not to be, since it was nowhere near as maneuverable as that famous classic.
		What was important about the He-51 from a design standpoint was its elegance of line, and top speed of almost 199 mph (320 km/h), which was in keeping with its true role as a forerunner of the first fighter to serve with Luftwaffe, upon its official formation in April 1935.

		The He 51 was withdrawn from fighter duty and relegated to the ground attack role, and then eventually to training.
