Hello,

does somebody know in which factory were those Fw 190F-8s produced? And in which time-frame?

Thanks

Michal

The FW 190F-8 series was as you mention, built by Arado Warnemünde (factory abbreviation hkz). Deliveries commenced in March 1944 and by the end of November the same year a total of 2044 F-8 aircraft had been produced by Arado. Deliveries continued after 30.11.44, but I have no confirmed details about this.
The prefix-number used by Arado for this series is 58 followed by a four digit Werk-Nummer at irregular intervals.
