Germany would continue the development of jets throughout World War II, and the Messerschmitt Me 262 would become the first jet fighter to attain operational status.The only other country to have jet fighters in oper­ational service during World War II was Great Britain. On July 21, 1944, No. 616 Squadron received its first two Gloster Meteor Is. Additional Meteor Ills soon fol­lowed, but these never engaged in aerial combat with German jet fighters. Instead, the British used them to intercept and destroy V-1 buzz bombs.SharingmatrixDepositfiles 0 01.jpg......Page 1 02.jpg......Page 2 03.jpg......Page 3 04.jpg......Page 4 05.jpg......Page 5 06.jpg......Page 6 07.jpg......Page 7 08.jpg......Page 8 09.jpg......Page 9 10.jpg......Page 10 11.jpg......Page 11 12.jpg......Page 12 13.jpg......Page 13 14.jpg......Page 14 15.jpg......Page 15 16.jpg......Page 16 17.jpg......Page 17 18.jpg......Page 18 19.jpg......Page 19 20.jpg......Page 20 21.jpg......Page 21 22.jpg......Page 22 23.jpg......Page 23 24.jpg......Page 24 25.jpg......Page 25 26.jpg......Page 26 27.jpg......Page 27 28.jpg......Page 28 29.jpg......Page 29 30.jpg......Page 30 31.jpg......Page 31 32.jpg......Page 32 33.jpg......Page 33 34.jpg......Page 34 35.jpg......Page 35 36.jpg......Page 36 37.jpg......Page 37 38.jpg......Page 38 39.jpg......Page 39 40.jpg......Page 40 41.jpg......Page 41 42.jpg......Page 42 43.jpg......Page 43 44.jpg......Page 44 45.jpg......Page 45 46.jpg......Page 46 47.jpg......Page 47 48.jpg......Page 48 49.jpg......Page 49 50.jpg......Page 50 Jet Fighters Of The U.S. Navy Early Designs Revell by Bert Kinzey
