Focke-Wulf Fw.190A-4
The Fw.190A-4 variant was the last version before the wing
root and cowling were extended (A-5 to A-8 versions). The slight variations with
the Fw.190A-1/2/3 was the antenna mast protruding from the tail, and later
variants of A-4 had exhaust "louvers", rather than the open slots. The
armored head rest also changed mid-way in this production. Both head rests are
included in the kit

Cleaver in Modeling Madness right here. Tom just highlights the fact that

sits on the tarmac
