Encyclopedia > Hamburger Flugzeugbau

Hamburger Flugzeugbau was a Hamburg-Finkenwerder based aircraft company established as a subsidiary of Blohm + Voss in July 1933 to build seaplanes.


Some of the models built at this time were:

  • Ha137 - a dive bomber landplane
  • Ha138C - a reconnaissance seaplane
  • Ha139 - a transport seaplane
  • Ha140 - a fighter/bomber seaplane.
  • Ha222 - a six engine seaplane

The German air industry was suspended at the end of World War II. The company reemerged in 1956 as part of Flugzeugbau Nord and license built Nord Noratlas.


In 1961, Focke-Wulf, Weserflug and Hamburger Flugzeugbau joined forces in the Entwicklungsring Nord (ERNO) to develop rockets.


In the mid 1960's Hamburger Flugzeugbau worked on a design for a twin-jet HFB314 aimed at medium-haul market that the Caravelle was enjoying a success in. The design did not get off the drawing board with the company becoming involved in the production of the French-German Transall C-160 military transport. It also developed and built a private jet aircraft called the HFB320 which first flew in 1964.

Hamburger Flugzeugbau Ha 137 (273 words)
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.
