the point is, that the low hanging jet engines is a problem when u land it, u need to be extremely careful.. so to land the me 262 u would need a lot of time to slow it down and level it out to not bellycrash it to the ground, so every pilot took a turn before landing.. and that's the issue.. the most me 262 got shot down on ground and the most flying me 262, on their way to the ground or right after take off. Over thousand of them where made but only under 100 actually could saw combat. The point that there were so uninfluencial at ww2 except the early days of their existence, were to the fact that the runway was out of asphalt and visable through thousands of meters of altitude. So support fighter like mustangs kept the airport under fire and then the carbet bombing begans.. One thing is to mention, that the Swallow, for real dominated the sky, once in the air. There was a similar fear of bomber pilots, like mech. infantry had for the Tiger one. And that could be biased, but of all warplanes out of the first half of the 20 th. century, me 262 was the beauty in the sky, deadly but beautiful indeed.

Barrie Rodliffe They didn’t. Most Me262s were shot down during take offs and landings. Every time there was a report of an airborne Me262 Tempests would be sent to German airfields to destroy the jet during landing approach. British had way better situation in 1945 and still Gloster Meteor was no match for the Schwalbe

For people that haven't played War thunder or have never heard of it It's misleading for just being able to jump in and play as the me-262 right away. You have to play the game for weeks to rank up and research planes. and the 262 is one of the last planes for germany in the game. You'd have to play for at least 2-3 months straight in just germany flying planes and nothing else to be able to get the 262. Or if you want, throw a couple hundred dollars in the game and buy your way to it in a few weeks Gaijin is a money hungry corporation sort've like EA, or Activision but friendlier Everything in the game almost begs you for money, and you need to throw in lots of money to be able to progress in the game at a decent pace Such as buying premium accounts, boosters, and premium vehicles (which cost up to 30-40 bucks each)

Probably not, war thunder sponsored them. I've been playing war thunder since around 2014 on and off. and it took probably 2 years of on and off playing to get to the F-86-f2 sabre for the american tree. It's hard to get engaged in war thunder for me because the grind is just too much in my honest opinion So much to grind for to get one tank, or one plane. I've probably thrown like 150 bucks in the game but i can't do it anymore. I don't think it's worth throwing like 2-3 of my hours to grind for one plane or tank tier 4 or higher and deal with the unbalanced matchmaking system I Mainly just goof off in realistic custom battles more than anything

As a WWII aviation enthusiast, I watched this episode primarily to see how accurate it would be. I must say, I’m impressed, Simple History! Only a couple minor things that I believe are worth mentioning: 1. The prototype still had its nose-mounted piston engine after the Jumos were fitted for the first time, in case the jets failed on the first flight(They did) 2. As far as I know, there were only two produced prototypes of that glazed-nose bomber variant we see in the background as you are talking about the Me-262s variants; I don’t believe it saw service.

Oh god, I got my F-80 after 300 and researched germany til rank Iv and until rank III tanks, grinded the complete rank III, got til the F4U-1D, halfway the B-17E/L halfway to the F-84 grinded japan until the Zero in these 300 hours. If you dont have it after 900 hours, you only play naval or tank battles or just open the game and do nothing.

I’m doing a project on this right now perfect timing
The first 262 flew with jets and a piston engine. Both jets flamed out on takeoff, and the plane barely stayed in the air with the first engine. Also, it was when they switched to the Junkers Jumo engine that they swept the wings. The first wings were straight. They swept them to restore the centre of gravity from installing the larger engines. The DC-3 wings were similarly swept from the DC-2, and otherwise had no aerodynamic effect on either aircraft.

I love the simplicity yet attention to detail of your videos, Simple History. I was wondering, if on the off-chance you happen to read this comment and your interests somewhat align: Any chance you could do a video of the OSS Jedburghs during WWII? I'm a huge fan of clandestine/covert ops history, especially during WWII. Like I say, if you get the chance or if it catches your fancy. EDIT: And if not, that's totally fine. Thanks again for all your videos. Keep up the great work!

The Japanese made their own version of the Me262 called the Nakajima Kikka. Due to lack of materials it was a lot cruder and slower, it's first test flight was the day after the atomic bombing of Hiroshima so never saw use, only 10 were made.
Man I love these videos! Ww2 history is really interesting stuff!
Love the channel, outstanding explanation
Im learning something new
A great plane.
Jet engines are turbofans in jet fighters, turboprops in helicopters and propellor planes, engines for non nuclear/piston engined naval ships (running on diesel, turning the driveshaft to turn the propellor) and are basically what turns the shaft for the generator in gas power stations, they are THE most versatile engine in existence imo, i love jet tech, it is so fucking sick.
good Video... With ME 262 new chapter of Flying was born..

the komet was terrifying, on both sides. On one side, you're sitting in a rocket prone to explosion without even any landing gear. On the other, it's an extremely small, extremely fast rocket with 30mm cannons being piloted by german aces.

Well it took an exceptionally long time to speed up and down so it was very slow while taking of compared to other planes.
about to unlock it!! so excited!!!!!!!!!
it was only about 50 miles an hour faster than a mustang, so on a dive a mustang was able to catch up to the 262 and easily out turn it. and the 262 engines could not be quickly throttled down or up, so it was easy pray when landing or taking off
The M262 design proved to be useful after the war which later transformed into jet airline planes although jet engines just off the wings rather than on the wing like with the ME 262. Allied and Russians tested them after the war but decided not useful for military jets but useful for civilian aircraft later. Henikel He 178 look similar to the Russian Migs during the Korean war, I guess the Russians took the plan for these aircraft back to Moscow and made their own jet fighter using the plan. You'll notice most airlines had almost similar in design as the ME292 only bigger even up to today.
DO the Battle of Mogadishu next PLLLEEEAASSEE!!!!
I really love this aircraft!
Great video!
I dont know how. But i was doing a custom battle. 2 hours,10 planes and about 100k rounds later i shot down an Me262 in a P-26M2
The German engineers were the first to find out that if you make the engine core blades out of the more heat resistant nickel-chromium alloys the service life would be much improved. But Allied blockade made it impossible to access these resources so they are forced to produce the blades out of steel, hence the 25 hour service life. The Me262 was not as effective as intended due to, aside Hitler ordered it be used as a bomber, I believe PRIMARILY the maintenance of the engines, hence their availabilities. Just so you know, until the more recent improvements of ceramics, modern jet engine turbine blades are still made of nickel alloys today.

Everyone from the Americans, the British, and even the Soviets were experimenting with jet technology before the ME 262 went into service, it's just that the Germans beat the allies in creating something operational and fit for combat. When the allies got their hands on the German documents and scientists pertaining to jet tech, it greatly accelerated their respective programs. Similiar to how everyone was developing radar systems, but the British were the first to field them, and the Americans were first to (IIRC) field them onto their aircraft.
