Fw 190 Undercarriage Doors

Hello Larry

It is my understanding that these doors were standard on all Fw 190 A-series aircraft up to the Fw 190 A-7 upon which they were discontinued. Note that up to the Fw 190 A-6 these doors automatically closed when the fighter was on the ground thus often giving the impression that they had been removed. However, they were removed when the aircraft was fitted with the ETC 501 rack. I hope this helps.

Horrido!

Leo
