Fw 200 Condor Question
 
Has anybody any idea how many Fw2oo C-1 and C-2 models were up graded to C-3 versions ? I would be very grateful for any help, thanks.

none, I think, Different engines between C-2 and C-3 - The factory changed from BMW 132 (870 hp) to Bramo 323 R-2 (1,200 hp). Rest of versions was because changes in armament, number of fuel tanks carried, not to forget versions for Hs293 etc. - So a C-1 stayed C-1, C-2 as C-2 etc.
