Hello people ! Today I present you my new replica of a WW2 plane . The Me-262 Schwalbe (swallow) ! A german plane built by Messerschmitt . It first flew in 1941 (I was the first surprised when I read that) and 1 430 planes where built (all versions included) . This fighter jet (first functional by the way) could be equipped with a 50mm cannon or four 30mm cannons (some big pew pews in brief) . It could fly at a maximum speed of 878 km/h (I don't count in cave-men units) at 9000 meters of altitude. And that's all for me , if you want more facts about it , go on the wikipedia page , that's where I got to have those infos (the majority at least) . PS: I know the Iron Cross is not on the wings IRL but I couldn't find a way to put them correctly on the side of the plane . And please don't bother me with the swastika NO , I DON'T PROMOTE NAZISM OR FASCISM IN GENERAL I just tried to make it look has real as possible
