Country:  | The Ta on the Ta-152 was actually for the person who designed the aircraft it was just built by Focke-Wulf that is why it is the Focke-Wulf Ta-152. I would have to research the name of the guy who designed it to tell you who it is but that is what it means. It is just like with the Gotha Ho-229 it was built by Gotha but was designed by Horton, so it got the an Ho-229 designation but some people still mistake it and call it a Gotha Go-299.

Country:  | Kurt Tank was the head of the Focke-Wulf design bureau.
The letters "Ta" were adopted for Focke-Wulf aircraft designations starting sometime in 1944, to honour him. | |

In fact, the TA-152C is almost identical to the late model Dora's with the addition of a P-51 style cooling system (I'm not sure if it generated thrust???). It had the same identical wings and primary fuselage.
