The Me 262 entered service with the Luftwaffe in 1944 and was nicknamed Schwalbe (Swallow) when used as a fighter, and Sturmvogel (Stormbird) when configured as a fighter-bomber.

It carried heavy armament, usually four 30 mm MK 108 cannons, and sometimes air-to-air rockets, making it deadly against bomber formations. Desp

Developed from a 1938 design by the Messerschmitt company, the Me 262 Schwalbe was the world's first operational turbojet aircraft. First flown under jet power on July 18, 1942, it proved much faster than conventional airplanes.
