The Focke-WulfFw 190 Würger (English: Shrike) is a German single-seat, single-engine fighter aircraftdesigned by Kurt Tank atFocke-Wulf in the late 1930s and widelyusedduring World War II. Along with itswell-knowncounterpart, the Messerschmitt Bf 109, the Fw 190 became the backbone of the Jagdwaffe (Fighter Force) of the Luftwaffe. The twin-row BMW 801 radialenginethatpowered most operationalversionsenabled the Fw 190 to lift largerloadsthan the Bf 109, allowingitsuse as a day fighter, fighter-bomber, ground-attackaircraft and to a lesserdegree, night fighter.
The Fw 190A startedflyingoperationallyover France in August 1941 and quicklyproved superior in all but turn radius to the SpitfireMk. V, the main front-line fighter of the RoyalAir Force (RAF) particularlyatlow and medium altitude.[3] The 190 maintainedsuperiorityover Allied fightersuntil the introduction of the improvedSpitfireMk. IX.InNovember/December 1942, the Fw 190 madeitsaircombatdebut on the Eastern Front, finding much success in fighter wings and specialisedgroundattackunits (Schlachtgeschwader (Battle Wingsor Strike Wings) from October 1943.
The D-9 series was rarelyusedagainst heavy-bomberraids, as the circumstances of the war in late 1944 meantthat fighter-versus-fighter combat and groundattackmissionstookpriority.This model was the basis for the follow-on Focke-Wulf Ta 152 aircraft.
