This folder contains a repaint for the Heinkel He-111 P2 by Aeroplane Heaven, in the colors of the He 111-H6 of Sonderkommando Blaich, 1942. The Sonderkommando Blaich (English: Special detail Blaich) was a German special unit consisting of one Heinkel He 111 medium bomber that raided Free French–controlled Fort Lamy (present day N'Djamena) in the Chad region of French Equatorial Africa in January 1942.
The raid against a target located 1,250 mi (2,010 km) from the German-Italian bases in North Africa was a success but, on its return flight, the German plane ran out of fuel and had to make an emergency landing; both crew and plane were rescued a week later. More on this raid here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonderkommando_Blaich.
