How the Me 262 became the first fighter jet, turbojet breakthroughs, failures, and wartime reality
The Me 262 was a new class of fighter, but its true revolution was the turbojet engine behind it, and the brutal limits of wartime materials, reliability, and training. From early prototypes and political missteps to bomber-killing tactics and Allied counter-moves, this is the full story of a jet that arrived too late, and too fragile.

The first time American bomber crews encountered the German Messerschmitt Me 262 jet fighter in 1944, they were astounded and terrified by its speed. The Me 262 was approximately 150 miles per hour faster than the fastest Allied fighters, making Allied planes feel almost stationary by comparison. The reaction from pilots and ground troops? A mix of fear, awe, and confusion. This was the moment when the face of aerial warfare changed forever. | History In Pictures
