The Fw 190 A-1 is a BR2 fighter in the German tech tree, and is rather pointless on that BR. It’s armament consists of two MG FF/M cannons with 180 rounds and four 7.92mm machine guns with 3,200 rounds and no external ordinance, and also has a notoriously bad flight performance. Compared to the Bf 109 E7/U2, which has only 60 rounds less for the 20mm cannons and two less 7.92 machine guns, it has a much better flight performance and has four 50kg bombs, which makes it better than the Fw 190 in the majority of situations. The 190 A-1 is also on the same BR as the 190 A-4, which is just a straight up improvement, replacing a pair of the weak 7.92s with two 20mm MG151s with 500 rounds, which outclasses the 190 A-1 by far. I think moving this to BR1 wouldn’t be disruptive to balance and be a common sense decision.
