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.


Well yes, amongst other things it knocked down V-1's and served
in air forces around the world including the RAF and RAAF in Korea
