Re: Me 262 should have been used as a bomber?
No chance, the 262 should have been developed as a fighter and only a fighter, mainly as a bomber destroyer.
I firmly feel that with the strong Allied fighter cover offered late war,the 262 even in large numbers would still have not acheived anything. As we now know many 262's fell in action, more 262's would just have been more kills for the Mustangs and Thunderbolts. Just wish the Meteor could have met it in combat |
