The Heinkel He 2 produced in Sweden as the Svenska S 3 and nicknamed the Hansa was a reconnaissance floatplane built in small numbers to equip the Swedish Navy in the 1920s. It was a refinement of the HE 1 sharing its same basic configuration as a low-wing strut-braced monoplane with no tail fin and a rudder that barely protruded above and below the line of the fuselage.
