Good one oddball! Big Grin

Quote:16 prototypes were to be built, allowing the tail unit to be interchanged between the Design II and III variations. Of the Versuchs (experimental test series) aircraft, the Ta 183 V1-V3 were to be powered by the Jumo 004B turbojet, pending delivery of the HeS 011 jet engine. The Ta 183 V4-V14 were 0-series preproduction aircraft and V15-V16 were to be static test aircraft. The first flight of the aircraft was projected for May 1945, but none were completed by 8 April 1945, when British troops captured the Focke-Wulf facilities. However, construction of the first prototype did not commence before the end of the war in Europe.

if the above information is correct it would be naive to think that if the race had continued that by the time the yak15 and mig 9 took there first flight that the 183 was also doing the same

A better match up in the game would be the HE162 (late model) vs Mig9/Yak15 ( i have a COOP based around the match up...fun Smile)
