The Focke-WulfFw 190 Würger was used by the Luftwaffe during the Second World War in a variety of roles. Like the Messerschmitt Bf 109, the Fw 190 was employed as a "workhorse", and provedsuitable for a widevariety of roles, includingairsuperiority fighter, strike fighter, ground-attackaircraft, escort fighter, and operated with less success as a night fighter. It served on all the German fronts: Eastern Front, Western Front, NorthAfricanCampaign and the Defence of the Reich.
Whenit was firstintroduced in August 1941, itquicklyproved to be superior in all but turn radius to the RoyalAir Force (RAF) front-line fighter, the SpitfireMk. V variant. The 190 wrestedairsuperiorityaway from the RAF until the introduction of the vastlyimprovedSpitfireMk. IX in July 1942 restoredqualitativeparity. The Fw 190 madeitsaircombatdebut on the Eastern Front much later, in November/December 1942. The Fw 190 made a significantimpactseeing service as a fighter and fighter-bomber. The fighter and itspilotsprovedjust as capable as the Bf 109 in aerialcombat, and in the opinion of German pilotswhohadflownbothfighters, the Fw 190 presentedincreasedfirepower and manoeuvrabilityatlow to medium altitude.
