Focke-Wulf Fw 190 A

Focke-Wulf Fw 190 A — a publication from the Kagero series

This title differs from general aviation books in that it bounds a single production series in its name: the Fw 190 A. It is therefore not a survey of the whole family of the type but a publication that its very name narrows down to one branch of development. It belongs among the aviation literature of the Kagero series.

What makes the A series interesting

The Fw 190 of the A series was powered by an air-cooled radial engine, which gave the aircraft its typical short stocky nose and set it apart from most fighters of the day with their liquid-cooled engines. The airframe was all-metal, with wide-track landing gear and good visibility from the cockpit. The A series was built in many sub-variants that differed in armament and equipment, and it is precisely this internal variety that is the reason separate literature is published on it.

Who it suits

• Modelers who build one of the Fw 190 A sub-variants.
• Collectors of aviation monographs and of the whole Kagero series.
• Readers interested in aviation who want to go deep into one particular series.
• Anyone who prefers a printed publication.
