Tamiya 1/72 Focke-Wulf Fw190A-3 Scale Model

This 1/72 representation of the Focke-Wulf Fw190A-3 by Tamiya captures the silhouette and engineering of a key WWII fighter. The kit reflects the aircrafts sturdy airframe and the BMW 801Dg radial engine that helped make the Fw190A-3 a frontline machine during its service life.

Operational History and Design Notes

Introduced in the late 1930s to complement the Messerschmitt Bf109, the Fw190A-3 featured an uprated engine delivering around 1,700 horsepower and carried a six gun armament including two MG151 cannon. The model mirrors those design highlights so builders can study the aircrafts form and function up close.

Build Quality and Display Potential

The Tamiya moulding offers fine surface detail and historically minded decals, making assembly satisfying for hobbyists. When finished, this Fw190A-3 sits well in a mixed WWII display and pairs neatly with other 1/72 scale fighters.
