Hi, my name is Isaac Aguilar from Ciudad de Mexico

I recenty bought a hasegawa 1/32 fw 190D9 model, according to hasegawa, it belonged to Hans Ulrich Rudel, but i investigated and learned that Rudel was the best Stuka pilot.

Can you tell me what do you know about that? Is it possible that Hans Ulrich Rudel flew a Fw190D-9?

Here is a link wher you can see the model

In March 1945, Rudel was badly injured in the crash landing of one of his Stukas, and broke his leg. An indomitable fighter, he finally allowed himself to be talked into flying the Fw-190 due to the fact the control forces were less than with the Stuka, which allowed him to fly his Fw-190D-9 while still in a full leg cast. During these final weeks of the war, Rudel added to his wartime record by shooting down 9 Soviet fighters.
