Interesting how the soviets seemed to have a low opinion of the Fw-190 , according to this, especially since this fighter supposedly made an impact on the airwar in the eastern front. There is almost certainly some propaganda and lack of information involved , something that becomes apparent from the bogus report on the He-113, a non existant fighter!
