Messerschmitt Me-262 B-2a

Auto Credit Based on Dumpworks's Messerschmitt Me-262 A-1a "Schwalbe"

This design was proposed to "modernize" Germanys night fighter forces, though the Germnay already had the Me-262 B-1 in service the B-2 could mount a powerful radar system aswell as 2 MK108 Cannons firing vertically plus the standard 4 30mm armament, it could also tow a 900L Fuel Tank for extra combat endurance, flight tests were made but I could find no records of it fighting in combat (activator 1 for man guns, activator 2 for vertical guns, activator 3 to release the fuel tank wheels, activator 4 to drop fuel tank)
