@M4xPower2 жыл бұрын
The aircraft's best climb speed is near its top speed. Jets gain 'horsepower' as their airspeed increases. Nothing can climb fast with the 262, but steep climbs are a no no. At around 500 km/h and above, the 262 ought to have a climb rate advantage, and that advantage should get higher and higher as the chase becomes faster. The 262 will still have a major percentage of its climb rate above the P-38's top speed, at which the P-38 can't climb at all (while maintaining it speed by definition). I think escaping this situation could have played out like 1. Get out of guns range. 2. Achieve around 600 km/h TAS 3. climb at an attitude gains or maintains airspeed.

You cant throttle the me262 engines up or down rapidly, you have to go up really slowly otherwise the engines will overheat and catch fire, and go down slowly otherwise you will have a flameout, the throttle also cant go under about 20-30% while in flight otherwise you will flameout, in the 262 you pretty much stay between 80-100% throttle the entire time until landing, normally when I land I take about 30 seconds to go from 90% throttle to 40%

One of the biggest problems for the ME262 aside from being bounced in the landing pattern, was sheer weight of numbers fielded by the allies. They would dive in and blast some allied aircraft but then be swarmed by a ratio of as high as 15-1 by Mustangs and other air defense fighters while they were trying to engage an enemy. Even with its speed it struggled to survive against such heavy opposition flown by very experienced pilots.

The ME262 wasn't a finished jet fighter (thank god) and in a dogfight the ME262 couldn't turn, it was only good at shooting then moving. A Germany pilot Hubert Lange said the Tempest was by far the most dangerous opponent.
