From the spring of 1942 until the end of the war, Germany was pounded by night and by day by Allied aircraft. A key element of the German defenses was the Fw 190, a rugged, well armed and reliable machine. This book details the Fw 190 and its variants in the crucial years of 1943/45, and presents rare photos of the planes, their crews, and their combat missions.
