Re: FW190A-9 production?
Hi
I do not have the production numbers of FW 190A-9 in September, October and November of 1944, but the following are the numbers for the given subsequent months, have also included the totals for the three mentioned months:
September 1944: 851 FW 190A of all subtypes
October 1944: 671 FW 190A of all subtypes
November 1944: 990 FW 190A of all subtypes
December 1944: 20 FW 190A-9, 103 FW 190A-9/R11
January 1945: 67 FW 190A-9, 50 FW 190A-9/R11
February 1945: 12 FW 190A-9
March 1945: 24 FW 190A-9
These are the numbers of FW 190A-9 delivered new from the industry to the Luftwaffe during these months, thus we have a minimum number of 276 aircraft delivered, and I would suspect based on the numbers for these last months that about 15% of the aircraft produced in September/October/November were A-9's, giving an additional about 375 aircraft, thus a total of about 650 aircraft of this subtype produced, which fit the number range you quote quite nicely.
