The Focke Wulf FW-190 is regarded as Germany's best World War II fighter aircraft.
The aircraft was a challenge to the most modern British warplanes. Although some could out turn the German aircraft, they could not match its overall speed and rate of climb.
The Focke Wulf FW-190 saw action as an interceptor, day fighter, night fighter, conventional bomber, and as a torpedo bomber.
The aircraft were constantly upgraded. Many of the aircraft were fitted with water methanol or nitrous oxide injection to improve the emergency war power performance of their radial engines.
In August of 1944, the model D was introduced as a high altitude interceptor. The radial engine was replaced with a liquid cooled, inverted V engine. The forward fuselage of the model D was lengthened by about 48" in order to accommodate the engine.
Initial missions of the model D included providing air cover for jet aircraft over their air fields. The jet aircraft were especially vulnerable to interception during take offs and landings.
A total of over 20,000 Focke Wulf Fw-190 aircraft of all types were manufactured.
