For OP, here is Reppu paper spec on my hand (inside parentheses is Fw190D-9's number I could get)

Fully equiped weight; 4,719kg (4,840kg), Max speed:624km/h (732km/h), Engine Power: 2200hp (2240hp), Armament: 4*20mm (2*13mm+2*20mm)  Flight distance; 1960+km (810km)

Obvioudly Fw190D-9 would be "faster"(which is huge advantage) in combat but could not be used for carrier-based plane effectively because of its short flight distance/duration. The required modification for Fw190T (adding arrester hooks, modification to wings so they can be folded,  possible additional fuel tanks inside the wings, and enlarging wing size to shorten approaching distance) will hinder its original capability, needless to seay. So, I say, they are comparable in numbers on paper.

I say it is quite pointless to compare land-based airplanes and carrier-based airplane, which has huge restriction in designs. If you want to compare Fw190/Bf109 with something, you should compare it with Shiden-kai, which is originally a land-based airplane.
