No need for that,British and Americans already have much better jets,swept wing or not,

True

I just like pointing out that while the Germans were trying to make a another jet the Americans were spliting atoms

A much harder task

On that note you have to ask youself why were they trying to make another jet?

If we are to belive the Germans were SO FAR AHEAD of the rest jet wise with their Me262 and thier He162

Why not refine those instead of making a totally new jet?

Reason is the Germans knew the Britts and Americans allready had much better jets

On that note

I wonder how many of these blue lovers even know that the Me262 was not intended to be the first swept wing fighter

As a mater of FACT the only reason the wings got swept on the Me262 was to correct the center of gravity due to the larger and heavier jet engines

Thus to maintain the cg they had to push the engines farter to the rear

And the only way to do that without a total re-design was to sweep the wing back

at least Allied jets are not self-flammable.
