Focke-Wulf Fw190 A-3 1/48 Scale Tamiya 61037

The Focke-Wulf Fw 190 served alongside the Messerschmitt Bf 109 to defend Germany from the middle stages of WWII to the end of the war. Its use of an air-cooled engine was a rarity among contemporary European aircraft, and its combination of maneuverability, survivability and ease of maintenance led to massive popularity among pilots. The A-3 variant appeared in 1942 and proved a formidable foe for British aircraft, even as the balance of power began to change after the Battle of Britain.
