Official Unboxing- Airfix | Focke-Wulf Fw190A-8/F-8 (A02066A)

First flying in 1939, the Focke-Wulf FW190 was an immediate threat to RAF fighters when introduced in late 1941, being faster and more manoeuvrable than the Spitfire V then in service.

The F-8 was the ground-attack version and differed primarily in its lack of outboard cannons. Various combinations of underwing weapons were fitted, but the most common was one centreline bomb and four small bombs on the wings.

The A-8 version was the most numerous, heavily armed variant and entered service in 1944 in an attempt to stop Allied daylight raids. By then, however, the new Allied fighters had begun to outclass it.

Lovely looking kit.❤ Box art is really good and both decal/paint options very appealing. The first one's my favourite; right at the end of the war, May 1945. Well done, Airfix.

A 1/48 scale Focke wulf 190 from airfix would be nice 😊

Any chance of a new tool Dora in this scale? 190A/F kits are plentiful but the D is really hard to get.

Hey Airfix! Your 1/72 pilot's suck. And get the decals right. You know what I'm talking about.
