Focke Wulf Fw-56 Stösser (German: Sparrowhawk) is a German single-engine training fighter aircraft of a mixed design with a high-flying design, created since the beginning of World War II. The aircraft was created as the Focke-Wulf manufacturer's response to a training aircraft and a fighter that performs air defense functions. The design turned out to be so successful that it won the competition against the Arado Ar.76 and Heinkel He.74 aircraft. The Fw-56 entered serial production in 1935, and by 1940 more than 1,000 copies of this aircraft had been produced. The aircraft was serially produced in one version: the Fw-56A-1, which in practice was just a training aircraft. The plane was exported to Austria and Hungary. The power plant was an 8-cylinder Argus As 10C engine with a capacity of 250 hp.
