The He-219 Uhu was a German heavy night fighter, employing a number of the then novel radar and antennae equipment, and was the first operational HYPERLINK "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_aircraft" \o "Military aircraft" military aircraft to be fitted with HYPERLINK "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ejection_seat" \o "Ejection seat" ejection seats. After protracted development the prototype flew in November 1942. The first fighter variant to be delivered was the He-219A-0, which was actually identical to the 'A-2'. It was equipped with four cannons in the ventral tray and two guns in the wings. The He-219A-5 was the first major production version, being similar to the previous 'A-2' model but with an extended range, while the final variant was the He-219A-7, fitted with improved engines. The He-219 was a two-seat, all-metal monoplane powered by two Daimler-Benz DB 603 in-line piston engines.
Nearly 300 of all the He-219 models were built and although the type proved to be a capable fighter, it saw only limited service; had they been available in quantity, they might have had a significant effect on the strategic night bombing offensive of the Allied forces carried in the latter half of the war. After the war, a few aeroplanes were test flown by the Czechoslovak Air Force; however, their service was limited and short-lived.
