Eduard 84118 Fw 190A-5 Light Fighter - Weekend Edition 1/48 is a high-quality plastic model kit representing the legendary German World War II fighter aircraft – the Focke-Wulf Fw 190A-5. This 1/48 scale model belongs to the popular "Weekend Edition" series, offering a simplified build process while maintaining a very high level of detail and a realistic final appearance.

Fw 190A-5 was one of the key variants of this aircraft, known for its improved performance and increased armament. The plane was widely used by the Luftwaffe in 1943 on both the Eastern and Western fronts. It saw action during the Allied offensive over France as well as in the defense of the Reich. This kit includes several marking options for specific aircraft which flew in units such as JG 11, JGr. Ost, JG 54, and SKG 10 – including examples flown by Luftwaffe aces Hermann Graf and Walter Nowotny.
