The Focke-Wulf Fw 190 Würger (English: Shrike) is a German single-seat, single-engine fighter aircraft designed by Kurt Tank in the late 1930s and widely used during World War II. Along with its well-known counterpart, the Messerschmitt Bf-109, the Fw 190 became the backbone of the Luftwaffe's Jagdwaffe(Fighter Force). The twin-row BMW 801 radial engine that powered most operational versions enabled the Fw 190 to lift larger loads than the Bf 109, allowing its use as a day fighter, fighter bomber, ground-attack aircraft and, to a lesser degree, night fighter.

No foam is used whatsoever. A four to six channel radio is required. The FW-190 uses special 5.50 dia. scale wheels and a 1/4 scale WW II pilot figure.
