The Hurricane too was known for being able to operate from bad airfields, under adverse conditions, easy to repair (as long as it flew with RAF) and serving for a long time. Do you imply that the Hurricane was a strong plane too?
There's no need to worry about the ruggedness of the FW-190, we won't see it in BoB anyway.
