Guillow's Focke-Wulf FW-190 Flying Model Balsa Kit

The Focke-Wulf FW-190 is a german single-seat, single-engine fighter aircraft designed in the late 1930s and widely used during WW2 as a day fighter, fighter-bomber, ground-attack aircraft and a night fighter. It started flying operationally over France in August 1941 and quickly proved superior in all but turn radius to the Royal Air Force’s main front line fighter, the Spitfire MK. V. The FW-190 was well-liked by its pilots. Some of the Luftwaffe’s most successful fighter aces claimed a great many of their kills while flying the FW-190.
