If I remember right the first Fw190,s came into play on this front
AFAIK there were no FW-190s in Stalingrad, but they started operating in the Northern/Central sector from September 1942 (starting with I/JG51).
So during the time frame of the Stalingrad battle there were FW-190s on other sectors

*SIGH* I know you are right about that Ataros but boy am I sick of the usual suspects, 109 version XYZ etc. At least we'll get some Russian planes a la CloD standard to play around with. I hope they at least throw in one or two planes we haven't flown a gazillion times before, I mean, even the devs themselves must be bored in modeling the same old crates over and over again, right? What speaks for some new aircrafts though is that many of the German planes are already modeled so maybe, just maybe we'll get some interesting or odd plane.

With regards to time consuming plane modeling I think that they now have a pretty good framework and routines in which they create new planes and the tools for making them might have been streamlined through the years, a 2005/6 model of an aircraft might only take half the time to model in 2012. The models in this game are detailed yes but state of the art? not any more.
