"This completed kit looks terrific"
dmansfield001
This Focke-Wulf Fw190-D-9 Model Kit by Tamiya arrived in excellent condition with no visible flash on any of the components. The detail on each piece is very nice and the decals are quite extensive for four variations and all inclusive. As with allof the Tamiya kits I've built thus far, the instructions are nicely illustrated and clearly written. The fit-up of parts was very good requiring minimal use of filler. This completed kit looks terrific.

"Great detail and fit"
Blotto74
This kit was an absolute joy to complete. The detail and fit are top notch with minimal use of putty. The directions were clear and easy to follow with several finish options and decal sets. Although, I did find the decals a bit on the thick side for my liking. Nothing a liberal use of decal set and dullcote on final finish couldn't help. All in all it was a nice addition to my WWII 1/48 scale collection. I would recommend this to modelers of all skill levels.

 
"Typical details"
Philip_j05
A must for any collection. Some small parts, no worries, all fit good. Decals somewhat thin...watchout!

This is a good version of the Focke-Wulf 190 aircraft. It will make a nice addition to my collection.

Information

Following the successful entry of the Focke-Wulf Fw190A series of fighter aircraft over the English channel during the autumn of 1941, the German RLM requested high altitude version to complement the fighter fleet, and three projects were started. The Fw 190B used the B.M.W. 801 turbosupercharged radial engine and a pressurized cockpit, but very few of these were built.

The Fw190C was powered by a 1,750hp Daimler Benz DB603A in-line engine, of which three prototypes were built. The third high altitude project was based on the Focke Wulf Fw190A airframe and powered by a Junkers engine. The fuselage was lengthened to accommodate the V-12 cylinder, liquid cooled, 1,750hp Jumo 213 engine, and made its initial flight during the winter of 1941 - 42. Five further prototypes were produced, plus small batch of Fw 190 D-Os were completed from standard production Fw 190A-7 airframes. These pre-production aircraft were followed by the Fw190 D-2 through D-8 designations.

The Fw 190D-9 began production in June 1944, with early versions having the flat topped canopy, and from W. Nr. 210002 onwards having the Galland hood (blown canopy). It went into combat with the III/JG 54 "Grunherz" (Green Hearts) in September 1944, at Achmer, Germany, as top cover for the new Messerschmitt Me262 Jet fighters then entering service.
