The superb Oxford Diecast "Front Line Fighters" 1/72 scale Lufwaffe Focke Wulf Fw190D-9 flown by Hand Dortenmann of 12 JG 54, Oldenburg, Germany 1944.

Oxford says:The Focke Wulf 190 was designed by Kurt Tank and first took to the skies in 1939 before being introduced into service in 1941. Modifications over its period of production between 1939 and 1945 improved its performance incredibly. The long-nosed 190D-9 version, nicknamed ‘Dora', was introduced in 1944 and around 1800 were produced before WWII hostilities ended. 

The Oxford 1:72 scale replica is as flown by Hans Dortenmann 12JG, Oldenburg in 1944. He was one of the highest scoring German WWII aces, credited with 38 victories on some 156 combat missions, 18 victories being accomplished flying the D-9 ‘Dora'. He was the most successful German pilot in this particular aircraft. As a result, during WWII service, he was decorated with the Iron Cross, German Cross in gold and finally the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross. Hans Dortenmann survived the war and died on 1st April 1973.
