Summary[edit]

Description
English: Focke Wulf FW190F-8 in the National Air and Space Museum, Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center, Washington DC.

The Focke-Wulf Fw 190 Würger, was a single-seat, single-engine fighter aircraft of Germany's Luftwaffe. Used extensively during the Second World War, over 20,000 were manufactured, including around 6,000 fighter-bomber models. Its later versions retained qualitative parity with Allied fighter aircraft, but Germany was not able to produce the aircraft in enough numbers to affect the outcome of the war.

Compared to the Bf 109, the Fw 190 was a "workhorse", employed in and proved suitable for a wide variety of roles, including air superiority fighter, ground attack, fighter-bomber, long-range bomber escort, and night fighter.

Français : Focke Wulf FW190F-8 dans le National Air and Space Museum, Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center, Washington DC. Le Focke-Wulf Fw 190 Würger est un avion de chasse monoplace utilisé par l'Allemagne du IIIe Reich pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, à partir de 1941. Il ne réussit jamais à remplacer complètement le Messerschmitt Bf 109 comme principal chasseur de la Luftwaffe, bien qu'il lui soit supérieur dans l'absolu et malgré plus de vingt mille avions produits. Cependant, grâce à sa polyvalence issue d'une construction modulaire, il donna naissance à un grand nombre de modèles dérivés qui permirent de remplacer le Junkers Ju 87 (Stuka) comme avion d'appui des troupes au sol, et le Messerschmitt Bf 110 comme chasseur lourd pour lutter contre les bombardiers.
Deutsch: Focke Wulf FW190F-8 im National Air and Space Museum, Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center, Washington DC.. Die Focke-Wulf Fw 190 Würger ist ein deutsches Jagdflugzeug des Zweiten Weltkriegs der Bremer Focke-Wulf Flugzeugwerke. Es gilt als eines der besten Jagdflugzeuge seiner Generation. Auf allen Kriegsschauplätzen ergänzte es ab 1942 die Messerschmitt Bf 109 als zweiter Standardjäger der Luftwaffe. Bis Kriegsende wurden über 20.000 Einheiten hergestellt. Es war bei seiner Einführung den britischen Jagdflugzeugen, Supermarine Spitfire und Hawker Hurricane, in Leistung und Bewaffnung deutlich überlegen.
