About the Focke-Wulf Fw190A-8/F-8:

First flying in 1939, the Focke-Wulf FW190 was an immediate threat to RAF fighters when introduced in late 1941, being faster and more maneuverable than the Spitfire V then in service. The F-8 was the ground-attack version and differed primarily in its lack of outboard cannons. Various combinations of underwing weapons were fitted, but the most common was one centerline bomb and four small bombs on the wings. The A-8 version was the most numerous, heavily armed variant and entered service in 1944 in an attempt to stop Allied daylight raids. By then, however, the new Allied fighters had begun to outclass it. Despite this, the Fw190 remained a formidable opponent throughout the war, respected by Allied pilots for its rugged construction and devastating firepower.
