The aircraft in the photo has the larger late war bulges of the fuselage MG 131 cover, which were only found on the Fw 190 A-7, Fw 190 A-8, Fw 190 A-9 (fighters) and the Fw 190 F-8, Fw 190 F-9 (fighter bomber/ground attack aircraft). The aircraft also shows the late war blown canopy, which excludes the Fw 190 A-7. Production date: late 1944 - end of war."
