Re: Should the Me262 been used exclusively as a jabo ....

If we are concentrated only on the final efficiency of 262 jabo, there is of course the usual classical line of 'wrong role for the 262'.
But for those who have military background or at least some firm theoretical knowledge of air support, understand that 262 jabo was a correct decision.

The result of of its use is unfortunate mix of expecting too much under the stress of poor avg. pilot jabo training, communication heer/lw, new technology, logistics and state of war.

Just because you hit your fingers when using hammer, it does not mean that it is not the right tool for the job.
