Fw 190 and Erla factory

Is it possible that Fw 190A-2/3 were produced and/or modified by Erla factory?

Pawel

Hallo Pawel!

No Fw 190As were produced by Erla. One example known through photos apparently repaired at Erla VII Antwerp, but it is also known that Focke Wulf repair was not a regular thing there.

Re: Fw 190 and Erla factory

I've got a document (handwritten) from technical section of Spanish 15./51 from July 1943 giving two or three W.Nr. of unit's Fw 190. There is a word in parenthesis behind W.Nr. that looks similar to 'erla' but now I think it may be Spanish word 'cola' - and that probably means that number (W.Nr.) was placed on tail of the aircraft and was not a/c id number.

kind regards,
Pawel

Re: Fw 190 and Erla factory

No problem with scans, I'll try to post them today. There are couple of Fw 190s listed by W.Nr. on 9-Jul-1943:
359
288
5286
3410
510

Can anybody identify them by subtype and earlier/later Luftwaffe or Spanish service?

kind regards,
Pawel
