Fw 190A-5 flown by Jg 26 commander Josef 'Pips' Priller in May, 1943. Priller was one of the most successful Luftwaffe pilots against the RAF and USAAF, with all 101 of his victories coming on the western front, including 68 Spitfires. Priller took command of Jg 26 in January, 1943 and held the position for 2 years before being promoted to
Inspekteur der Jagdflieger Ost, the Chief of Staff for eastern front fighter units.
This aircraft features Priller's personal emblem, the ace of hearts inscribed with the name of his wife, Jutta. Another unique feature is the camouflage mottling lightly applied over the yellow painted rudder.
This skin is an adoption of "III/Jg 26" originally done by Archaius.
