This plastic model kit represents the German Focke-Wulf Fw 190D-13 fighter in 1:48 scale. MiniArt's Advanced Kit allows you to build a detailed replica of one of the rarest variants of the Dora series, developed towards the end of World War II. Its distinctive silhouette, with an extended forward fuselage and an inline engine, sets it apart from earlier Fw 190 versions powered by radial engines.
The kit offers extensive detailing and several assembly options. It includes two cockpit configuration options, alternative flap positions and visible engine components. Different bomb and external fuel tank options are also provided. Photo-etched parts and decals for historical aircraft complete the package.
The Focke-Wulf Fw 190 was one of the most important German fighter aircraft of World War II. Introduced into service in 1941 and initially powered by the BMW 801 radial engine, it quickly earned a reputation for speed, firepower and excellent combat performance. The design was continuously developed to keep pace with increasingly advanced Allied aircraft.
The Fw 190D series, nicknamed “Dora”, was powered by the liquid-cooled Junkers Jumo 213A inline engine. This required an extended forward fuselage, giving the aircraft its distinctive profile. The new engine improved high-altitude performance while preserving the fighter's effectiveness during the final stages of the war.
The Fw 190D-13 belonged to a very small group of late-production variants. It was powered by the Jumo 213E engine and armed with a 30 mm MK 108 cannon firing through the propeller hub, together with two 20 mm MG 151/20 cannons mounted in the wing roots. This configuration was primarily intended for air combat, and the aircraft's production and operational use took place during the final months of World War II.
One of the best-known aircraft of this variant was “Yellow 10”, bearing Werknummer 836017 and associated with Major Franz Götz. At the end of the war, the aircraft fell into Allied hands, allowing its design and construction to be documented. Today, the Fw 190D-13 remains an interesting example of the advanced development of German piston-engine fighters in the closing stages of the conflict.
