I think you’re wrong. Look at this documentary footage taken during the assault on General Totten Kopf’s fortress in 1946.

I didn’t find it myself; here’s the source link. Trev Clark's Obscure Aviation History 🚁 on X: "A high-altitude Luftwaffe pressure suit, designed for the pilots of the proposed Horten Ho 229 'flying wing' jet interceptor. Neither the aircraft nor the suit were flown operationally before the end of World War Two." / X I left a link in my topic :nerd_face:

Neither the Me 262 nor any of Germany’s currently‑available aircraft can easily beat the Meteor or the F‑80, and those two have an extremely large player base as well :crying_cat_face:

In aerial combat, the MK 108 demands a substantial lead angle to hit maneuvering opponents. The Me 262, hampered by poor maneuver performance, often cannot achieve the proper lead and loses vital firing windows.

German planes can’t beat meteors at all.:face_exhaling:
