I accept correction on the Me-109. I was just repeating what I had been told. Oops.

Me-262 (First jet used in large quantities)

As has already been pointed out the Meteor entered squadron
service BEFORE the Me-262

That's true. But did the Meteor ever DO anything? Clearly the Me-262 saw
actual combat service, downing and being downed in large-ish numbers.


Harrier (VTOL)
F-117 (Stealth)

My list of other revolutionary aircraft
Bell Huey (first helo used in large numbers????)

Incorrect the Bell 47 preceded it by almost a decade
and remained in production until 1976

Oops. I knew that!!!
