when level flys at Vmax, fw190a8 in equilirium, zero acceleratiom, all forces are balanced.

t=P*r/V=1953*735*0.8/160.5=7155N

m*g* sin(0)+t=d*Vmax^2

d=t/Vmax^2=7155/160.5^2=0.2778

Drag coefficient is wrong.
In level flight drag = thrust.
D=0.5*density*speed^2*drag_coefficient*reference_a rea
From the above equation calculate drag coefficient and use it to calculate drag at different speeds and altitudes. What you called as "drag coefficient" ans used throughout the different examples is not correct.
