Development of the FW190 series began in the Autumn of 1937, under a
contract issued by the Reichsluftfahrtministerium (Air Ministry) for a
single seat fighter to supplement the Messerschmitt Bf109. Two proposals
were submitted by Kurt Tank, the technical director of the Focke-Wulf
Flugzeugbau (aircraft factory). The proposal using the then new BMW 801
aircooled radial engine was chosen. This tough and powerful engine was
placed in a robust airframe and provided superb handling, well balanced
control, and brisk acceleration. It entered service in 1941, flying
alongside the Bf 109 and it soon took control of air superiority over
the English Channel. Establishing itself as a mainstay fighter of the
Luftwaffe, it outperformed the contemporary Spitfire Mk.Vs in almost
every respect and maintained this advantage until the arrival of the
Spitfire IX in July 1942. The Fw190 fighter underwent constant
improvement throughout its life. The A-3 version used the improved BMW
801Dg engine that produced 1,700 hp. Armament was increased from four to
six guns, consisting of two rapid firing MG151 s in the wing roots two
MG FFs outboard of the landing gear and two fuselage mounted MG 17
machine guns. Throughout WW2, many Luftwaffe squadrons allowed personal
pilot markings and distinctive squadron insignia to be used, plus lower
cowl, wing tip and rudder color additions to the original paint schemes.
