The Focke-Wulf FW190 A3 was a German fighter aircraft developed during World War II. It was designed by Kurt Tank and first flew in June 1939. The A3 variant of the FW190 was introduced in early 1942 and was an improved version of the earlier A2 model.

One of the main improvements of the A3 was the addition of two 7.92 mm MG 17 machine guns in the outer wing panels, bringing the total number of machine guns to four. The A3 also featured improved armor protection for the pilot and the engine, as well as a stronger engine mounting.

The A3 was powered by a BMW 801 D-2 radial engine, which gave it a top speed of around 660 km/h (410 mph) at 5,800 m (19,000 ft). It had a range of around 800 km (500 mi) and a service ceiling of 11,400 m (37,400 ft).

The FW190 A3 was used extensively on the Eastern and Western fronts of the war, and was known for its maneuverability and strong armament. It was used for a variety of roles, including air superiority, ground attack, and reconnaissance. The A3 was also used as a fighter-bomber and could carry a variety of bombs and rockets.

Overall, the Focke-Wulf FW190 A3 was a formidable aircraft that played a significant role in the air war over Europe during World War II.
