The Messerschmitt Me 262 Schwalbe (German for "Swallow”) was the world's first operational jet-powered fighter aircraft.
Design work started before World War II but engine problems prevented the aircraft from attaining operational status with the Luftwaffe until mid-1944.
Compared with Allied fighters of its day, including the jet-powered Gloster Meteor, it was much faster and better armed.
One of the most advanced aviation designs in operational use during World War II, the Me 262 was used in a variety of roles, including light bomber, reconnaissance and even experimental night fighter versions.
Me 262 pilots claimed a total of 542 Allied kills (although higher claims are sometimes made) against the loss of about 100 Me 262s.
The Allies countered its potential effectiveness in the air by relentlessly attacking the aircraft on the ground and while they were taking off or landing.
Maintenance problems and a lack of fuel during the deteriorating late-war situation also reduced the effectiveness of the aircraft as a fighting force.
Forces of Valor® replica of the German Me 262 was flown in Germany in 1945.
Constructed of both die cast metal and plastic. Fuselage is metal. Wheels roll.
New packaging for 2012 no ties or screws, double blister construction.
