The Me 262 V9, Werknummer 130 004, with Stammkennzeichen of VI+AD, [114] was prepared as the HG I test airframe with the low-profile Rennkabine racing-canopy and may have achieved an unofficial record speed for a turbojet-powered aircraft of 975 km/h (606 mph), altitude unspecified, [115] even with the recorded wartime airspeed record being set ...
Me 262 V3. Messerschmitt began work on a single-seat jet-powered fighter before the start of World War II. The initial design was known as Projekt 1070 (P.1070). A twin-engined straight-wing design, the P.1070 was canceled in favor of the similar P.65. [1]
Reproduction Messerschmitt Me 262 W.Nr.501244 produced by the project in 2006 Reproduction Messerschmitt Me 262 W.Nr.501244 operated as D-IMTT at the Berlin Air Show 2016. The Me 262 Project is a company formed to build flyable reproductions of the Messerschmitt Me 262, the world's first operational jet fighter. The project was started by the ...
Compared to the Me 262, the Kikka airframe was noticeably smaller and more conventional in design, with straight wings (lacking the slight sweepback of the Me 262) and tail surfaces. [2] The triangular fuselage cross section characteristic of the German design was less pronounced, due to smaller fuel tanks.
The Junkers Jumo 004 was the world's first production turbojet engine in operational use, and the first successful axial compressor turbojet engine. Some 8,000 units were manufactured by Junkers in Germany late in World War II, powering the Messerschmitt Me 262 fighter and the Arado Ar 234 reconnaissance/bomber, along with prototypes, including the Horten Ho 229.
The Su-9 was likely influenced by the Messerschmitt Me 262. In 1944, the Sukhoi design bureau began designing a twin-engined fighter powered by two Lyulka TR-1 turbojets, known internally as the Samolyet or Izdeliye (item or product) K. The ultimate design was very probably influenced by a captured Messerschmitt Me 262, but the Su-9 was not a ...
The few Messerschmitt Me 262 A-1b test examples built used the more developed version of the 003 jet, recording an official top speed of 500 mph (800 km/h). The Me 262A-1a production version used the competing Jumo 004, whose heavier weight required the wings to be swept back in order to move the center of gravity into the correct position ...
The final stage of Mistel development was of specialised purpose-built jet-powered bomber components, including ones developed from the Messerschmitt Me 262, the Junkers Ju 287 and the entirely new Arado Ar 234. None of these ambitious schemes, with the exception of the Me 262 Mistel, had left the drawing board before the end of the war.
