Inside the Me-262 Jet Fighter

Follow and Wishlist our game on Steam https://store.steampowered.com/app/36... The Messerschmitt Me-262A-1 "Schwalbe" ("Swallow") was the first mass produced jet fighter in the world that entered combat. With its maximum speed of 540 mph this sleek bird outran every allied fighter at the end of WW2. It was not a "wonder weapon" but it was still an outstanding and pioneering design. The Me-262 went into production too late to significantly impact the course of the war. We will show you how this plane works, what was good and what bad qualities the Swallow had and how Me-262 was used in its role as an interceptor. Tell us in the comments below what you think about this plane and please tell us where we made any errors.
