The Heinkel He 111 was one of the primary bombers used by the Luftwaffe during the Blitz, which targeted British cities from 1940 to 1941. Capable of carrying a substantial payload, the He 111 played a crucial role in the extensive bombing campaigns. Additionally, other bombers like the Dornier Do 17 and the Junkers Ju 88 also contributed significantly to the bombing raids. However, the He 111 is often noted for its prominence and effectiveness during this period.

How did the bombs get underground in the London Blitz?

Most of the bombs (and the V-1 and V-2 missiles) exploded above ground in London, which is why people took shelter in the subways and in basements. Unfortunately, some bombs were made heavy enough to penetrate the ground before exploding. Other bombs destroyed buildings which then collapsed into the subterranean shelters.

What types of bombs were dropped on England in World War 2?

Many bombs but the most common were the V-1 and the V-2 bombs. The V-1 & V-2 were not used in the blitz, they did not exist then. The blitz was at the beginning of WW2, from 1940 until Hitler turned on Russia in 1942. The V-1 & V-2 were not available until Germany was already beginning to lose the war in 1944. Bombs dropped during the Blitz were ordinary high-explosive "dumb" bombs, what are today typically labeled as an "iron bomb" - a steel casing filled with some form of high explosive. The most commonly used ones by German bombers were 100kg and 250kg bombs, with some incendiary (fire-causing) bombs also mixed in.
