He Really Did Try [FW 190 A-8 & Bf 109 K-4 Go Head to Head]

Another dogfight series in an aircraft not made for dogfighting. At least the AAA is there to help.
Designed for the German Luftwaffe by famed aircraft designer Kurt Tank in the late-1930s, the Fw -190 was the backbone of the Luftwaffe in both fighter and attack bomber roles. Powered by a large radial engine, the A version of the Focke-Wulf 190 was superior in many ways to the Bf 109s and Spitfires at the time of its introduction. In fact, this led to the development of the Mk.IX version of the Spitfire. The Spitfire LF Mk.IX and the Fw 190 A-8 make excellent counterparts for DCS World. The Fw 190 later evolved into the Fw 190 D-9, also available on DCS World.
Many of the Luftwaffe's aces racked up their impressive kill counts in the Fw 190 A due to its impressive fire power, excellent low to medium altitude performance, durability, and ease of flying. It saw action on both the eastern and western fronts where it was both respected and feared by allied pilots. Armament included two fuselage-mounted 13-mm MG 131 machine guns and four wing-mounted MG 151/20E 20mm cannons. The Anton could also be loaded with unguided rockets and bombs.
The A-8 version of the Fw 190 entered production in February 1944, and it was powered by a BMW 801 D-2 radial engine. In addition to excellent low- and medium-altitude performance, the engine was also very rugged. Along with the F-8 version, it also had thicker armor around the engine.

Rolling scissors is your best bet. Or, given your roll advantage, a one-circle fight?

[@MisterRosanti]

Nice flying there. 👍
What I'm wondering is, why is the AA shooting at him, but not at you?

[@JJ_Simulation]

Cheer's mate :) I set the AA to my team.

[@kakute4159]

I’ve gotta ask what was the point of simming this if you were going to drag him around the aa until he was damaged to the point he couldn’t really fight anyway? Don’t get me wrong I know you’re at a disadvantage in most aspects without the added help but just seems like you simmed the match for it to be won without a proper fight due to the aa. Not trying to be an ass just purely curious

[@JJ_Simulation]

Mainly to see how I'd go. I was expecting the AA to be as inaccurate as it usually is, but hey, it doesn't always go according to plan.
