What was the best plane in World War II?
Hello, landlord

The strongest in World War II was ME262 (Messerschmitt? Me 262)1942 July 18, the chief test pilot F. Vendel made an epoch-making flight over the German airport, and the most successful actual combat jet fighter ME 262 came out. ? As early as four years ago, the German authorities ordered Messerschmitt Aircraft Factory to develop a brand-new fighter as soon as possible, which can be compatible with turbojet engines trial-produced by Bavaria or Junk Company. 1 June, 1939, P 1065 double engine scheme passed the preliminary examination,1941,and the prototype1engine Me262V 1 left the factory. /kloc-in April of 0/8, the engine block was temporarily driven by the piston engine 65438+. Two Bavarian 109-003 jet engines with a temporary thrust of 500 kg were added and modified, and three mixed flights were carried out. 18 July, two junker 109-004a jet engines were modified, and finally they were completely successful. 1 June1day, the prototype Me262 was also put into flight test. ? Me262 became the first jet plane in the world (He 178), and its competitors were he 280 (he 280 (1941+0) and British "Gloucester" F28/39 jet experimental plane (19465438). ? The successful development of Me262 delighted the German military, threatening that only three allied fighters could resist one Me262. After watching the air show, dictator Hitler even ordered Me262 to be put into production as a high-speed bomber without authorization, because he thought there was only an attack at that time, and there was no need for defense. As we all know, his arbitrariness not only greatly delayed the normal development of Me262 as a new generation fighter, but also almost ruined this advanced performance model. ? On July 25th, 1944, Me262 first met a mosquito plane of the Royal Air Force. Although the former dived at a speed of 663km/h, it still attracted the attention and surprise of the allies. In August, the 5 1 Bombing Aviation Corps under the command of Major Weng Lan put the bombed ME 262a-2a into the battlefield in North Africa for the first time, but the speed dropped to 670km/h after hanging the bomb, which often became the target pursued by allied propeller fighters. In addition, in order to prevent the plane from disintegrating due to dive, only the plane is allowed to drop bombs horizontally, resulting in the deviation of the hit point reaching 1 ~ 2km ... It turns out that Me262 is not suitable for bomber at all. ? The real fighter refitted ME 262A- 1A officially entered the war in June 1944. Major Novotoni, the young commander of the EK262 experimental flying team, took the lead in shooting down an allied reconnaissance plane. At the end of August, Hitler allowed "limited production" of this fighter. In September, the newly formed conventional combat force "Commander Novotoni Flying Team" has 40 planes, the main task of which is local air defense operations, and the operational target is the allied four-engine large-scale strategic bomber flying into China. In one battle, six Me262s shot down 15 B- 17 bombers in a few minutes. ME 262' s large caliber cannon began to show effective destructive power to large targets, and high-speed flight improved its survivability. Starting from1mid-October 10, the Ministry dispatched 3-4 planes every day to ambush on both sides of the enemy bomber route, and shot down 22 enemy planes within 30 days. ? After Novotoni's death, the troops were reorganized into "Hindenburg 7th Flying Regiment", and Colonel Steinhoff took over the command. The plane of the whole regiment was also modified with 55mm R4M? Air to air rocket. ? By the last week of February 1945, the regiment had shot down 45 large bombers and 5 fighter planes 15. ? Me262b- 1a/u 1 two-seater night fighter with Fug-2 18 radar on its nose was refitted and entered the war in February 1945, belonging to "Commander Beta Flying Team", responsible for night air defense in Berlin. In April, it was renamed as 1 1 night fighter squadron. By the end of April, * * * had shot down 30 mosquito planes, of which 16 was made by Beta alone. ? By the end of World War II, 1, 433 sets of me 262( 1, 294) had been produced. Major Ehrlich Hartman, the world's number one "ace" pilot, switched to this plane as a landline at the end of the war and shot down three enemy planes, ending his personal record of shooting down 352 planes. ? Me262 is an all-metal semi-hard shell light aircraft. The streamlined fuselage has a triangular cross-section, and the nose is equipped with four 30 mm machine guns and camera guns. The semi-bubble canopy is in the middle of the fuselage and can be opened to the right. The front windshield is 90 mm thick, and the back of the chair is covered with 15 mm steel plate, all of which are bulletproof. EZ-42 gyro sight or Leipzig 16B sight can be used for launching and aiming machine guns and rockets. ? The nearly triangular tails cross at the tail, the nacelles of two axial-flow turbojet engines are directly installed under the swept lower wings, and the first three landing gears can be incorporated into the aircraft. ? Me262 has fierce firepower, and its maximum speed is higher than that of ordinary enemy planes 160 ~ 200 km/h, which has certain technical advantages. However, Me262 also has some shortcomings, such as unreliable engine, poor maneuverability in air combat, slow acceleration and rolling rate, and complicated control. ? However, shortcomings cannot hide jade. Me262 showed great power in the face of the absolute air superiority of the allied forces in the later period. According to statistics, Me262*** shot down 6 13 allied fighters, most of which were 4 heavy bombers. Me262 lost nearly 200 aircraft, of which only 60-70 were war damage, and the rest were due to mechanical failure and ground loss. ? Answer supplement?

The epoch-making ME262? Its position in World War II is no less than that of F22 today?

According to the landlord? The most advanced must be ME262? The strongest definition is one-on-one hit? The super speed and super firepower of ME262 is absolutely a myth? No. 1
