"I will make a pass with my mark 108s" - a very common and completely understandable mistake Wolfpack. The MK in this case does not stand for mark - it stands for Machinen Kannonen - not totally certain of the spelling in German - but it means, obviously, machine cannon. I presume you know Flak stands for Flugzueg Abwerhr Kannonen?

The 262 originally had a tail dragger configuration like a 108 and many other fighters but the pilots couldn't see the runway in front of them on take off and landing (and taxiing) and they got a technician to sit on the wing to guide the pilot (during taxiing) so they changed it to a tricycle landing gear to fix that. Hitler's demanded bomber modification for the 262 (a ridiculous idea) was worse than futile because the only advantage the 262 had was it's speed and slowing down to bomb was exposing it to AA and interception. As far as I know the engineers could devise no bombsight for the aircraft to do the job at speed. You did a great job hitting that bridge btw. I saw a photo online somewhere showing a two seater trainer version. We have a 262 here in the Canberra war museum (and a V1 buzzbomb), despite neither being used in our theatre of war. I'd like to recommend "Sharks of the air" (ebook) from the apple bookstore if anyone would like to know the conception and war record of Willy Messerschmitt and his 262.
@patrickmclaughlin5533
3 жыл бұрын
Messerschmitt was such an excellent aircraft designer. The 109 was revolutionary for its time in which it was originally designed and developed (30s) and continued to be a thorn in the RAFs side until later iterations of the Spit and of course he went on to create the first real successful jet fighter. Kurt Tank was also excellent, thankfully Germany couldn’t produce aircraft like the allies could otherwise they would have been in trouble.

Thanks for the videos and all the work you put into them. I find that your understanding of some of the history really helps flesh out the production value there. Having watched some of your other air campaigns please for some of our sanity stop reversing your turns in front of enemy aircraft. NEVER DO THAT. It's death. Reversing a turn in a dogfight unless you are in just the right position with perfect timing results in death almost certainly. WIth those stang's you should have kept the turn going and only pulled the circle down if you begin seeing the bottom of their plane, as they then have lead. For some tips I would suggest watching someone like growling sidewinder or a few others, they break down a lot of the air to air stuff. He does WW2 aircraft.

The Allies had enough fighters by this time to have patrols hanging around over Me 262 bases like taxis at a train station... TBH the Germans should have had 'mobile 262 airfields', just a bunch of trucks for the mechanics, and using the autobahn for a runway, relocating during every mission so you never land in the same place you took off from.
