The Henschel Hs 129 B-2 was a Luftwaffe twin-engine ground-attack aircraft primarily used on the Eastern Front from 1942 to 1944 for anti-tank roles against Soviet armored forces. It saw significant, though challenging, service in the North African campaign (Tunisia) and was also operated by the Romanian and Hungarian air forces.
Key details regarding the usage of the Henschel Hs-129 B2 include:

North Africa (Tunisia): The type was deployed in 1943, but its French Gnome-Rhône engines proved highly sensitive to sand, leading to significant maintenance issues and reduced effectiveness. Other Theaters: Besides Germany, these aircraft were utilized by Romania and Hungary on the Eastern Front, with some remaining in action until late 1944. The B-2 was designed specifically for close-air support, featuring heavy armor protection for the pilot.
