The Blohm & Voss Ha 136 was a German single-seat training aircraft from the Blohm & Voss company .

development

The aircraft was developed from February 1933, on the one hand, as a parallel design to the Ar 76 and Fw 56 for a "Heimatschutzjäger" and "practice single-seater", and on the other hand to incorporate the newly formed construction group under the direction of Richard Vogt into the new tubular spar construction. Two prototypes were built that were equipped with different drives. The V1 with the indicator D-esin was a Bramo-Sh-14 - radial engine with 100 hp and two-bladed propeller used, the V2 ( D ASS ) received an Argus engine with 135 hp. The flight tests carried out from autumn 1934 onwards revealed insufficient stability in flight, which Vogt tried to remedy on the Ha 136 V2 by enlarging the tail unit. However, this failed and the tests were discontinued with no results. The Fw 56 ultimately won the elimination.

construction

The aircraft was a cantilever, low- wing, all-metal construction. The landing gear was a disguised normal landing gear.
