Fw190 production by Arado at Anklam

[stephen f. polyak]

Am hoping to learn if complete Fw190 airplanes were produced by Arado at their factory site in Anklam. Otherwise, what major parts/assemblies for the Fw190 were made there? Thank you.

Hi Stephen

I hope that everything's fine with you. I don't have my copy of Fw 190 Radial Engine Paint, Markings and Production by McDermott focused on Arado as it's on loan at the moment but if I recall correctly he points out that not only were components such as wings and tail assemblies produced but also final assembly began at Anklam in July 1944. I hope that somebody with access to the book can verify this!

Horrido!
