Today the developers at FlyingIron Simulations announced the release date for their upcoming Focke-Wulf Fw 190 for Microsoft Flight Simulator.
The historical warbird will launch in just a few days, on October 10.
Funnily, YouTube took issue with the first iteration of the trailer released to celebrate the announcement and quickly removed it due to an alleged violation of the terms of service.
The video is now back and you can watch it below.
FlyingIron Simulations is known for some rather well-loved World War II aircraft for Microsoft Flight Simulator, including a Messerschmitt Bf 109 G6, a Spitfire LF Mk IXC, an F6F-5 Hellcat, and a P-38L Lightning. If their track record is an indication, the Focke-Wulf Fw 190 is likely to be very good as well.
Microsoft Flight Simulator is currently available for PC and Xbox Series X|S.
