Robert S Johnson was one of my heroes...His "Jug" had call letters HVP...Good writer and did not need a ghost writer..
I read his book in 1st grade. 1st book I ever read that was aimed at an adult audience.

Looking good! The Fw 190 was a revolutionary, deadly (to its foes) machine with combat record to prove it. You may want to reduce the MVR a bit for the 2nd highest band though as the 190 achieved its top speed below 7000 m. Like most of the 109s. Maybe increase the service rating too to 2 or 3 as its now made with Japanese inefficiency and lack of engineers?
The MG151 cannon's stats in game already represent the use of Japanese ammo, but note that until the A-6 the outer wing guns were MG-FF/M with lower ROF and ammo capacity. If that one is not in game, the Type 99 or 99-2 should be similar-ish with Japanese ammo again!
What do you think?
Edit: oops, looks like a misread the stats. Nevermind about the mvr.
Thanks for the feedback. I'll give raising the service rating some thought. I didn't give my Fred outer wing guns, I thought it would be over kill. The 20MMers on it now are wing root mounted, that's why I have them as center line.
This A-2 is pretty much the limit for this aircraft in Japan. The A-3 and up used the BMW 801 D engine which required higher octane fuel.
As I said above I kinda backed into the 190, I wanted the BMW 801 C-2 for another aircraft. In case any of you are wondering, Japan does not get that inline piece of crap the HA-40 because of this. Need a few other changes to make that happen. Mods can snowball on you, but they can be fun.
