(request)Me-262 Mistel?
#1

I have done some researching on the Me-262 and I have found that they made a test ''Mistel'' version.
there are hardly any records of it but I know that it existed.

Wikipedia says the 262 version only ever existed on paper. Not sure how reliable that is.

I'm sorry I thought it would be cool to be able to fly it in Il-2. The place that I was looking at said that they built a prototype but I guess not. Sad

Still I think a mod of this aircraft would be nice, don't you think?

That there is a Me-262A-2a/U2 dedicated bomber variant with a bombardier in prone position in the nose replacing the guns. It's a real variant, built and tested as a prototype.

I am unaware of this kind of a Mistel combo with the lower portion also being a Me-262, as far as i know the proposal was to use a Ju-287 jet bomber but it was never actually used in that configuration, not even for testing purposes.

There was however a project of a purpose built flying bomb, the Arado E-377a, which was to be used in a Mistel combo. At a first glance it looked a bit similar to the 262:

But this was supposed to be used with a He-162.

Hence: "Not sure how reliable that is."
