Description

The Fw.190 is one of the most iconic aircraft of all time and along with the Messerschmitt Bf 109, was the backbone of the Luftwaffe fighter force during WW2. Designed by Kurt Tank the Fw.190 entered service in 1941 and quickly proved itself superior to the RAF’s Spitfire MK V in virtually every aspect.

The Fw.190 was upgraded throughout its service during WW2 and was liked by its pilots for its ruggedness and ability to land on the rough airstrips, which were often found on the Russian front. Not only was the Fw.190 used as a day fighter, but saw service as a night and ground attack fighter and towards the end of the war it was also utilized to carry the Mistel, a radio controlled Junkers Ju 88 packed with explosives which was often used to destroy bridges. We have a total of four 190’s available in this newsletter, there is only one of each available a present but we will order more if the demand is there. The price for all these 190’s is $699 plus postage, all figures and accessories are shown for scale reference purposes only.

This 1/30 scale 190 is flown by Eberhard Burath an Ace with a tally of six B-17’s to his tally plus a Russian Pe 2 during the final months of the war.
