The second design of the He P.1079 was closer to a flying wing layout, although there was a single, vertical fin which replaced the V-tail of the P.1079A. The wings were gull-shaped and were swept back at 45 degrees. This version of the P.1079B all-weather heavy fighter project was to be a single seater. Like the P.1079A, the two HeS 011 turbojets were located in the wing roots and the armament was six MK 108 30mm canon.
