Historical background

The Focke Wulf 190 A-3 was a development version of the outstanding German fighter aircraft from World War II, designed by Kurt Tank. Entering Luftwaffe service in 1941, the A-3 variant featured the BMW 801D-2 engine and strengthened armament. This aircraft took part in numerous dogfights over Western Europe, particularly during battles over the English Channel and the defense of the Third Reich against Allied air raids.
