The Focke-Wulf Fw-190 is a German, single-engine, all-metal fighter aircraft with a covered cockpit in the low-wing design of World War II.
The first prototype of the Fw-190V1 was ready in May 1939 and flew at Bremen on 1 June 1939 by Captain Hans Sander. The second prototype, the FW-190V2, armed with two MG131 and two MG17 machine guns, all of 7.92 mm caliber, flew in October 1939.
During the war, a dozen versions of this great aircraft were created. The machines of the "A" version, together with a dozen modernizations, served as fighter aircraft. The versions marked "B" and "C" were only prototypes of high-altitude fighters intended to combat strategic bombers, but they did not go into series production.
Over 20,000 examples of this, one of the best fighters of World War II, were produced throughout the war.
