The Me 262C-2b with BMW003R was an alternative to the Me 262C-1a
which had standard Jumo 004B engines and a completely separate rocket
motor in a modified tail. (which the preceing post was about)

The original post wasn't about the Me-262 C-1a Heimatschuzer I. That
aircraft had two Jumo 004B plus a Walter R-II/211/3 rocket engine in
the rear fuselage.

The engine in the original post is for the Heimatschutzer IV which
would have had two Jumo 004B plus a Walter 109-509S2 in a faired belly
pack, not in the rear fuselage.

The Me-262 C-2b with the BMW 003R (BMW 003 plus BMW 718) is the
Heimatschutzer II.

Nice photos, but was any Me-262 C-3 completed by war's end?
