EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the first prototype of the Focke Wulf FW-190V-1, a formidable fighter aircraft that became a key component of the German Luftwaffe's air force during World War II. The image, taken in the 1940s, depicts the aircraft parked on a runway with its pilot, Hans Sander, seated in the cockpit. The FW-190V-1 was powered by a piston engine and was designed as a 2nd generation fighter, serving as both a fighter and interceptor. Its distinctive shark-nose design and wing configuration made it a formidable opponent in the skies of Europe. The Würger, or Shrike, as it was also known, was a favorite among Luftwaffe pilots for its maneuverability and firepower. The FW-190V-1 was the precursor to the FW-190A series, which saw extensive combat action throughout the war. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the history of military aviation, showcasing the power and innovation of the Focke Wulf FW-190V-1 and the bravery of its pilot, Hans Sander.
