It's a Sea Fury and I think the one in the picutre is based in Southern California somewhere- I've seen it flying in and out of Camarillo.

Was it based on the FW-190?


That joke was too funny to let it die.

Very strongly influenced. if you dont see it looking at that pic...  

BTW other plane strongly influenced by the Fw190 was the Ki-100. The engine mounting was designed after the engineers had inspected and carefully studied a BMW801 mounting in a Fw190.

The KI-100 came about solely due to a lack of inline engines. The FW-190 that the Japanese had did show them how to mount a large diameter engine with a narrow fuselage. Fuselages of which they already had.

S!

Wasn't influenced by the 190.  It's a Tempest with an Annular cooling radiator for the inline Sabre engine.  The engine is basically the same as the Tempest, although uprated.  The Annular radiator was a design which was considered for the Tempest originally, and was used in the Tempest II.  The Tempest V used the Typhoon style radiator because it was simpler to continue with it.

Yes it was based on the Tempest/Typhoon.

No it did not use the Sabre.

A Bristol Centaurus 18-cyl radial was used.

Other than the engine installation it owes a lot more to the Typhoon than the 190.
