Awww, I don't have my reading glasses on - could someone tell me what this is about?

John it's a bit misleading I'd say, it's decidedly NOT a singular Focke-Wulf on its way! How about 50 of them?

[Naismith]

Wow, this mean I am going to have to install CFS3 again, now that IL2 1946, I just cannot get that sim running at all on W10.

Naismith, go to sas1946 website. They can help you get IL-2 1946 running in Win 10. I run win 7 and have no problems. Many use Win 10 and have no problem if a few steps are taken. CFS3 is still great in my book and eagerly wait for the new Fw-190's to be released. Wow !! 50 190's !! Oh! what fun it's going to be.Thanks guys for all the work to bring this to us.CFS3 is not dead at all !! Regards,Scott

Cheers!

To quote from Rob's post in another thread:

"CFS3 Focke Wulfe-190 A1-A4 series Aircraft set.

A-1 (early)
A-1 (Late) engine cowling cooling slots introduced to partially address engine over heating issues.

A-2
A-2 U3 introduction center bomb rack 250kg, 500kg. outer wing armament removed. (technically not a true U3, thus armed planes would go on to be designated as U3 once the concept had been proven).

A-3
A-3 U3 Jabo center bomb rack 50kg, 250kg, 500kg and or 300lt drop tank. outer wing armament removed.

A-4
A-4 (Late) same as A4 with new cooling louvers introduced instead of slots, became standard on A5 and beyond. Some planes fitted with the first of the wing mounted 300lt drop tanks which would become the U8 designation.

A-4 R6 wing mounted Br21cm rocket mortars.

A-4 U3 Jabo center bomb rack 50kg, 250kg, 500kg or center 300lt drop tank. outer wing armament removed.

A-4 Tropical, introduction of dust filters on air intakes.
A-4 U3 Tropical Jabo, introduced center bomb rack 250kg or center 300lt drop tank. outer wing armament removed.

A-4 U8 Jabo Fast fighter-bomber, center bomb rack 50kg, 250kg, 500kg. introduced standard wing mounted 300lt drop tanks. removed all armament except for the wing-root cannons.

A-4 U8 (Late) Jabo Fast fighter-bomber, center bomb rack 50kg, 250kg, 500kg. wing mounted 300lt drop tanks. removed all armament except for the wing-root cannons, based off the A4-late production model with cooling louvers instead of slots.

The represented Fw190A-4 series aircraft also have a mix of full-power and de-rated engines. de-rating the engines was an effort to overcome engine over heating issues in the early use of the A-4 up until late 1942. (completely new FM's developed for each variant) The set represents squadrons and aircraft ranging in time from mid-1941 through to early 1944. and encompasses the main user's and all mission types employed.

The total package contains 42 Fw190A1 to A4 series aircraft which are broken into 2 groups covering 18 different model/variants.
