@Japanese Navy was placed an order
for He112 V-12 with DB600Aa engine for defense of Naval air base in China.
But it seems that supplied planes were 12 He112 B-0. Those were given the
code as A7He1 according to the way of Japanese Navy. Their performance as
a fighter fell short of the expectation of Japanese Navy. Then, those were
likely to use as training fighter. Later, one of them delivered to Tokyo
University. What kind of the camouflage it had? Anyway, the 3rd kit is the
Japanese Naval version. Those would have been drawn some code on the vertical
tail. And those would have had red colored tail which you can see on the
96 Kan-Sen as 6th kit. The other side, the colored photos were not popular
at that time of Japan. So, the photos of He112 may be not colored but will
be monochrome, and those may not be clear. Therefore, I think that no one
know the truth is! The He112 may be test flown at Yokosuka Naval air base
or so. I made the kit with light-grayish-green on the upper surface, and
light-blue on the under surface. And I drew a code of Yokosuka Naval air
base on the red tail. I finished the kit as you can see it on the photos
at below.
