I was looking at 213 Squadrons victories in 1944 and note that they shot down one Go- 242 and claimed another on the ground. My question is... the Go-242 is a glider, no engine. After its He111 or other towing aircraft is shot down then frankly it's going in one direction, and that's not up. You could argue it might glide into friendly territoy but that's as Doctor Johnson said a triumph of hope over experience. Manfred von Richtofen could not make a Go-242 into something more than a balsa-wood DIY project
Thoughts?
The Luftwaffe did have powered gliders but the Go-242 wasn't one of them.
