The Focke-Wulf Fw 200 Condor, also known as Kurier to the Allies,[1] was a German all-metal four-engined monoplane originally developed by Focke-Wulf as a long-range airliner. A Japanese request for a long-range maritime patrol aircraft led to military versions that saw service with the Luftwaffe as long-range reconnaissance and anti-shipping/maritime patrol bomber aircraft. The Luftwaffe also made extensive use of the Fw 200 as a transport. It achieved success as a commerce raider until mid-1941, by which time it was being harried by long-range RAF Coastal Command aircraft and the Hurricane fighters being flown from CAM ships.
Designed by Kurt Tank to meet a Deutsche Lufthansa requirement for a new airliner, the Condor was first flown July 27th, 1937. © Copyright 2003-2024 The Flying Mule, Inc.
