Classics Hangar - FW 190 A Early Variants Released

Posted on Tue, 22 Sep 2009 15:38:37 GMT

When the Fw190A had its debut over the channel front by late summer of 1941, it came as a shock to the British RAF pilots. This fast and extremely maneuverable new German fighter outclassed their Spitfire Mk V in any respect. The business-like yet powerful lines of the Fw190 would rule the skies over Europe for the year to come, remaining competitive in its various reincarnations for the duration of the war.

This FSX package recreates the four early production variants of the WW II Luftwaffe's second major fighter aircraft, the Focke Wulf Fw 190 A-1, A-2, A-3 and A-4 and a special high altitude modification, the Fw190A-4/U7.

Included are nine different model variations and 34 liveries, some of which have never been done before for a flight simulation, beautifully recreating the early operational history of this legendary German fighter aircraft. Features

• True FSX SDK SP 2 Aircraft
• 9 highly detailed exterior and interior models
