The real hold up was the engines
And the fact remains that the Me262 was intally designed as a 'straight' wing fighter
And that they swept the wings to correct the cg

An ex nazi pilot said he liked the Me262 better
Big suprise
Not to mention he did not say what better means
For all you know he ment he like the looks better
