| The Focke Wulf Fw-189 is a German, twin-engine, reconnaissance and military cooperation aircraft with an all-metal double-bar structure from the Second World War. The flight of the prototype took place in July 1938, and serial production began in 1940. The Fw-189 was to replace the Henschel He-126 as the main reconnaissance aircraft of the Luftwaffe. The construction of the Focke Wulf turned out to be extremely successful. Thanks to the glass cabin, it had excellent visibility in all directions, and the low minimum speed allowed for precise observation of the battlefield. The plane also turned out to be very durable and easy to use. It was also able to fly on only one engine, normally the machine was powered by two Argus As 410 A-1 with 465KM each. During the war, until 1944, several versions of the aircraft were created. Marked with the letter "A", in several versions, served only as reconnaissance. The Fw-189B, on the other hand, served as a training machine, but it was built in a minimal amount. A version of the Fw-189A-1 / R was also developed, intended to act as a night fighter equipped with the FuG-212 Lichtenstein C1 radar and a single 20mm cannon firing obliquely upwards. In total, 831 aircraft of all versions were built. The Fw-189 was used primarily on the Eastern Front. Technical data (version Fw-189A): length: 12m, wingspan: 18.4m, height: 3.7m, maximum speed: 357km / h, climb speed: 8.3m / s, operating range: 670km, maximum ceiling 8400m armament: fixed-4 machine guns cal.7.92mm, suspended-up to 200 kg of bombs. | |||
