Re: Should the Me262 been used exclusively as a jabo ....
Nick, the point is it was not. As I have noted before, most air forces of 1930s had fighter bombers, but this was discontinued for a very short period due to too small bombload and need of highest performance to intercept enemy aircraft. RAF 'reverted' to fighter bombers in 1941.
The only revolutionary thing with Me 262 was that it was jet in series, but actually it had no influence on tactics.
