"Die Schwalbe und der Uhu" - a couple of Deutsch Birds, a little late, not enough but impressive.  |

The Carolina Chickadee, and the great horned owl. OK, but why are they a little late ? Oh, wait, you mean for the war effort...
DOH!

The single engine one, the HE 162, was known as Spatz (Sparrow). The twin engine, the ME 262, was known as the Schwalbe (Swallow). There were two Uhus. One was the HE 219 and the other was the FW 189. How long can you fly the HE 162 for?

If you don't manage takeoff power just so, the 162 will explode on or over the runway so, often, a short flight. Interesting how many unsurvivable events I've had in the Sim compared to real life. |

They also had problems with fueling. The fuel was VERY toxic and dangerous. I didn't think they would last long. Almost an airfield defense system (HE 162) - Go up, pull trigger, come down. Refuel. Rinse and repeat.
