Focke-Wulf Ta 152 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Focke-Wulf Ta 152 was a WW2 Luftwaffe high-altitude interceptor fighter. The Ta 152 was a development of the Focke-Wulf Fw 190 aircraft, but the prefix was changed from 'Fw' to 'Ta' in honor of Kurt Tank who headed the design team. The Ta 152H was among the fastest prop-fighters of the war, capable of speeds up to 755 km/h (472 mph) at 13 500 m (41000 feet)(using the GM-1 boost) and 560 km/h (350 mph) at sea level (using the MW-50 boost). en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Focke-Wulf_Ta_152   (867 words)

Focke-Wulf Ta 152 The first of 20 pre-production Ta 152H-0 aircraft flew in October 1944 and these, built at Focke-Wulf's Cottbus factory, were mostly rebuilt from Fw 190A-1 airframes and powered by the Jumo 213E engine with an MW-50 water-methanol injection system. The Ta 152C-3 was identical to the Ta 152C-2 with the exception that the MK 108 cannon was replaced with a MK 103 cannon. The Ta 152H-1 was armed with one engine-mounted 30 mm MK 108 cannon with 90 rounds and two 20 mm MG 151/20 cannon in the wings with 175 rpg. www.kotfsc.com /aviation/ta-152.htm   (1754 words)

Ta 152 V7 (C-0 built to C-1/R11spec) was the second Ta 152C prototype built. Fortunately, the kit includes the original plastic Ta 152H wings and it was less work to shorten these to those required for the C model. www.aircraftresourcecenter.com /Fea1/001-100/Fea077_Ta152c_Gastel/Fea077vsm.htm   (612 words)

Focke-Wulf Ta 154 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Focke-Wulf Ta 154 Moskito was a fast night fighter designed by Kurt Tank and produced by Focke-Wulf late in World War II. Kurt Tank's team at Focke-Wulf had been working for some time on a fast attack bomber called the Ta 211, so named because it planned to use an uprated Jumo 211R engine.

index The Ta 152 lineage can be traced back through the 'long-nosed' Fw190 D varients with their powerful supercharged Jumo 213 V-12 engines designed to enhance the high altitude performance of the earlier Fw 190A series. The Ta 152 was so different to the original Fw 190 with its short radial engine that to the casual observer, it is hard to connect the two. The NASM plane is thought to be a Ta 152 H-0 which was a pre-production model. www.geocities.com /ta152uk   (555 words)

FW Ta-152 Focke Wulf Ta 152 H from Revell - scale 1/72. The FW - Ta 152 was the "ultimate" development of the Fw 190 fighter series, again designed by Kurt Tank (The Ta stands for his name). This model depicts a Ta 152 H from Jagdgeschwader 301 at Leck, 1945. www.dioramas.nl /New%20Design/English/Models_Aircraft_1.htm   (105 words)

Focke-Wulf Fw 190 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia After the 'D' later variants of the 190 were named 'Ta' in honour of Focke-Wulf designer Kurt Tank. The most promising design was the Ta 152H; it used the liquid-cooled Jumo 213E engine and a greater wing area for better high altitude performance. Most Fw 190D and Ta 152H served as fighter cover for Me 262 airfields as the jet fighters had been very vulnerable on Take-Off and landing operations. www.wikipedia.org /wiki/Focke-Wulf_Fw_190   (972 words)

Focke-Wulf ( Kurt Tank ) Ta 152 One such German aircraft was the Focke-Wulf Ta 152, whose blueprints were purchased by the Japanese in April of 1945. The basis of the Ta 152 was the Fw 190D airframe and throughout the life of the aircraft's evolution, various styles of wing, engine, weapon, and other changes were made to it. The development of the Ta 152 (the Ta stood for Kurt Tank, the designer of this aircraft) came about as the Luftwaffe saw the threat of high-altitude bombers and reconnaissance aircraft which could be fielded by the allies and which would prove difficult, if not impossible, by current Luftwaffe interceptors to engage. members.aol.com /pelzig/ta152.htm   (1755 words)

Focke-Wulf Fw 190 - Germany Between October 1944 and February 1945 when production ended, Focke-Wulf managed to roll 67 completed Ta 152 aircraft (H-0, H-1, and C-1 models) off the line. The long-nosed Fw 190D was also developed into the Ta 152 after its designer, Kurt Tank-in which the installation of a 2,300 hp (with boost) DB 603 engine pushed the speed up to 745km/h (463 mph). The extended wing (14.5m), high altitude Ta 152H was indeed a sterling performer with a top speed of 755 km/h (472 mph) and a service ceiling of 15,000 m (49,215 ft). www.aviation-history.com /focke-wulf/fw190.html   (1561 words)

Focke - Wulf FW 190 Tan himself was testing a Ta 152 when he was bounced by Mustangs, the fastest Allied fighters. Both had an inverted V12 engine, the 190D's JUmo being used some Ta 152 sub-types including the long span 152H used for high altitude combat. While the Ta 152C had the 2 300 hp DB603L. expage.com /airge2   (476 words)

FW TA 152 Instruction set One story states that a pair of Mustangs intercepted Kurt Tank, Focke Wulf designer, as he was test flying one of the first 152s. The Focke-Wulf TA 152, had the war lasted a bit longer, could have been a real factor in holding off the allies. The TA 152 was a stretched version of the FW190 with a longer wing to take advantage of high altitude flying. www.jkaerotech.com /FWTA152bs.htm   (8656 words)

Second World War Books: Review Author Dietmar Hermann (his name is misspelled on the cover) delves into the history of the German Ta 152 fighter, an aircraft developed by Kurt Tank, the chief designer at Focke-Wulf, from the basic Fw 190 design and designated "Ta" in recognition of his achievements. Focke-Wulf Ta 152 is illustrated with wartime photos and documents and is relatively text-heavy in comparison to the other titles mentioned here. Although it lacks the visual flair of Birth of the Luftwaffe Fighter Force and the depth of textual information in Focke-Wulf Ta 152, this is an attractive, interesting volume and not only modelers but many in the Luftwaffe research community will want to own a copy. stonebooks.com /archives/990728.shtml   (836 words)

Focke Wulf Fw 190A-8 The Focke Wulf was for the early years of the war considered Germany's "other iron in the fire" as far as the Luftwaffe was concerned. There would be later designs such as the F series for fighter-bombers, and the Ta 152 for high altitude work as well as the powerful D series powered by a Jumo inline engine, but for the typical radial air-superiority fighter, the Fw 190A-8 was the last. This gun was synchronized with the propeller, and thus may explain the discrepancies (Focke Wulfe may have tinkered with the synchronization timing and/or increased the engine RPMs). www.rdrop.com /users/hoofj/Fw190A8.htm   (690 words)

Focke-Wulf Ta152H Thus was born the Ta 152, named for Kurt Tank, chief of design at the Focke-Wulf Flugzeugbau G. m. Except for designation, the Ta 152 series is directly related to, and a natural development of, the Fw 190. Definitive information about the NASM Ta 152 has always been lacking but research conducted late in 1998 may have revealed the airplane's true identity as Werk-Nummer (serial number) 150020, not 150003 or '010 as has been widely reported. www.nasm.si.edu /research/aero/aircraft/focke_ta152.htm   (1376 words)

Aviation Worldwide: Focke-Wulf Ta 152 But at the same time Focke-Wulf was developing the Ta 152H high-altitude fighter which, powered by the Jumo 213E and equipped with a pressurized cockpit, was capable of reaching altitudes on the order of 35,000 feet and speeds in excess of 430 mph. A few Ta 152Hs saw action at the beginning of 1945 and they made an excellent impression on their pilots. The project soon deviated far from the original Fw 190 concept and as an honor to the designer it was designated the Ta 152. www.aviation-worldwide.com /products/3299.html   (327 words)

Focke-Wulf Ta 152 The Ta 152 was a development of the Fw 190D. The Ta 152H was an excellent high-altitude fighter, but appeared too late, and few became operational.

Focke-Wulf Ta 152H-0 by Francisco Soldan (Dragon 1/48) Spurred by the search for a high-altitude fighter to counter the threat of Allied bombers, the Luftwaffe, and Focke Wulf, decided to modify the excellent design of the Fw 190D-9 and to install the fabulous Jumo 21E liquid cooled motor with a three speed, two stage supercharger. It is reported that Kurk Tank, the designer of the Ta 152, while proving one of the prototypes in flight, was engaged in desperate and successful escape when two Mustang discoverd it and took pursuit. In the spring of 1945, Reschke was transferred to the Stab/301, which was equipped with new Ta 152. hsfeatures.com /ta152hfs_1.htm   (466 words)
