FOCKE WULF FW190 D

* Brand New *

The Fw 190 D ("Dora") was intended to improve on the high-altitude performance of the A-series enough to make it useful against high altitude bombers. Reality meant that fighter versus fighter combat and ground attack took priority. Production started in August 1944, entering service in September 1944. The 1,726 hp Jumo 213A could produce 2,071hp, giving 426 mph at 21,650 feet.
Due to the many attempts to create a next generation 190, expectations of the Dora project were low. These impressions were not helped by the fact that Kurt Tank made it very clear that he intended the D to be a stop-gap until the Ta152 arrived. These negative opinions existed for some time until positive pilot feedback began arriving at Focke-Wulf. Sporting excellent handling and performance characteristics, it became very clear that the D-9 was nearly the perfect response to the Luftwaffe's need for an effective medium altitude, high speed interceptor, although its performance still fell away at altitudes above about 20,000 feet. When flown by capable pilots, the Fw190D proved to be a match for P-51s and Mk. XIV Spitfires. Compared with the FW 190A, the Dora had a greater level speed, climb rate, ceiling, rear visibility, was much quieter, handled better in steep climbs and turning, had less torque effect & slightly greater endurance.
Compared to a Spitfire, the Fw190D: 1. Had greater level, climbing and diving speeds; 2. Was inferior in turns, especially in steep climbing turns typical of combat.
Compared to a Tempest, the Fw190D: 1. Was better in the climb and in turns; 2. Had the same or lower level speed and 3. Had a lower diving speed.
Compared to a P-47, the Fw190D: 1. Had a greater level and climbing speed; 2. Had a better turning ability; and 3. Was inferior in diving speed.
It's one of the history's best ever fighters and a great subject for any modeller's collection.
