Focke Wulf Fw190D-9 (03930) (Retired)

Denying the skies to enemy aircraft

By late 1944, the war, for Germany, was effectively over. Nevertheless, Luftwaffe units continued to fight. German industry continued to pump out new and different types of planes. As the world hung in the balance, the D-9 variant of the Fw 190 took to the skies. It was faster, could fly higher, and was capable of carrying more bombs than the A variants. Despite all its advantages, it was much too late to turn the tide.
