This is a plastic 1/72 Focke-Wulf FW190A Airplane from Academy Plastics.
When the Focke-Wulf Fw190A first appeared in combat it proved a great
surpise to British pilots who found the aircraft completely superior to their
Spitfire Mk.V's. The A-8 variant of the Fw190 appeared in late 1943 and was
employed for infantry support, with gun packs under the wings, and as an
all-weather fighter equipped with radar and special navigation equipment.
These were the /R1 and /R11 subtypes of the Fw190A-8, respectively.

Decals included for one Fw190A-8.

intakes.
