Some data comparison between FW 190 A-3 vs Yak-1 (1942)

That is part of the type certificate application to the RLM.  The official wingspan for the large wing FW-190A thru FW-190D9 was 10.5 meters.

Different factories using different jigs to produce aircraft will inevitably produce some variations.

You wouldn't find different figures in a manual if the issue were manufacturing tolerances. There were several differences in the wing root section incl. the main spar between A-1 and later models, owing to the installation of the MG151 and a different landing gear. While I find the 10.38 doubtful, I still haven't seen an explanation of its origin.

You won't find a manual that over-rides the manufacturer's data either.   It would be nice to find out why that single FW-190A-1 manual has that printed.

 

However, it is totally irrelevant to the BoS FW-190 discussion.  Both the FW-190A3 and the FW-190A5 had a wingspan of 10.5m.

I do see 10.38m listed in the FW-190A1 Handbuch.  I do not see it listed on any other official document and the wing area is still listed as 18.3m^2.

Soma data, according to the researcher Dietmar Hermann, their books provide this charts and info. Strange that the landing speed is 130kmh/h and not ~180km/h, that contradict the developers charts.

Untersetzung: 1:1,85??? is this the friction coefficient?

130 km/h  = Most probably a typo

 

Untersetzung means Gear Ratio between motor and prop and also means lower ratio for prop... 1000 rpm prop -> 1850 rpm engine , so the cockpit gauge shows MOTOR-RPM , not prop rpm

 

EDIT: could you please post a bigger picture of the 2 charts? (as far as i can read the left one it states 680 km/h at emergency/takeoff power at ~6500 meter and at climb/combat power 650 km/h at ~5800m) and it states test flown values without out MG/FF at 3850 kg t/o weight

it can't be a typo, every other plane from the A series have the same value. I re upload the first photo which have the details of second photo, I have the information of every plane from the Anton series, Dora and TA in this books, even the prototypes. So the information is consistent across the books also this researcher spent 15 years looking for every chart, data, information.  

 

Question, is the fw190 A3 using in game the c3 fuel?

Untersetzung is the gearing of the prop shaft most likely. The fan IIRC is geared higher, turning faster.

The fan rotated at 1.72 times the crankshaft speed (3.17 times the propeller speed).
