TOPA0706 Giant Scale Focke-Wulf 190 ARF
Overview
Few fighter planes have ever been as agile as the Focke-Wulf Fw 190. Along with the Messerschmitt Bf 109, the Fw 190 formed the foundation of Luftwaffe air defense in World War II. Early prototypes proved the Focke-Wulf could hold its own against Allied aircraft like the P-47 Thunderbolt and the Spitfire. The Fw 190's blistering performance and multi-role versatility (including high-altitude interceptor and night fighter) made it one of the most important fighters of its time. Top Flite reproduces this Luftwaffe legend in a Giant Scale ARF that's packed with realism.
