Description
An illustrated account of the Fw 190 in its fighter-bomber ('Schlachtflieger') role and its operations on the Eastern, Western and Mediterranean fronts from 1942 to 1945. The Fw 190 provided the Luftwaffe with a reliable successor to the Junkers Ju 87 Stuka, capable of operating from advanced and primitive airfields in both the freezing Soviet winters and the hot North African desert. Converted by Focke-Wulf from a radial-engined fighter into an effective fighter-bomber and ground-attack aircraft, it exploited its gun platform, wide-track landing gear and powerful BMW engines to devastating effect. Luftwaffe historian Robert Forsyth examines all aspects of the Fw 190 in this role, describing the damage inflicted on Allied armored vehicles, troops, bridges and road junctions, with firsthand accounts from Schlachtflieger pilots, archival photographs and previously unpublished artwork.
