The Heinkel He 177 Greif (Griffin) was a long-range bomber of the Luftwaffe. This troubled aircraft was the only heavy bomber built in large numbers by Germany during World War II  Luftwaffe aircrew nicknamed it the Luftwaffenfeuerzeug (Luftwaffe’s lighter) or the “Flaming Coffin” due to serious engine problems on the initial versions of the aircraft.  When these problems were later rectified the type was successful, but could not be deployed in numbers due to Germany’s deteriorating situation in the war.
