Thank you, FTJR.

The skin of FW190 was made about five years ago.
The skin was not filling regulation.
I asked HTC whether since it is the imported airplane, it would fill regulation.
The answer was No.

I appended it as gratitude of gyrene81.

Not sure what the backstory is to the FW190, but the C-47 was actually manufactured under license in Japan.  I don't have the numbers in front of me but I'm guessing a lot of C-47's went to the Soviet Union under lend lease where they served in the VVS.

The Japanese and Soviets both manufactured their own versions of the C-47/DC-3 and they were also used at squadron level, which is probably the problem with the 190. The Japanese aircraft was the Showa L2D and the Soviet version was the Lisunov Li-2. The Soviets also got a load of C-47s under lend lease and their pilots generally preferred the US version. It had more power and more reliable electrics.

None of those pictures show up for me. Maybe my work is filtering them out...

I will try again at home.


olds442: The japanese markings on a Fw190 is not valid, for the reasons above but also because it was never a combat plane flown by the Japanese. It was simply a test/evaluation airframe. They also had He-100s, Me410s (maybe it was a 210C?), they had advanced plans and craft as well, like Me262s, Me163s, etc.

They were only for evaluation purposes.
