    Credit for the first Messerschmitt Me 262 jet fighter to be ‘brought down’ in combat belongs to Joseph Myers and Manford Crory of the P-47D-equipped 78th Fighter Group, who manoeuvred a 1./KG 51 machine into the ground on August 28, 1944. The German pilot survived. No shots were fired by both sides. It happened again on October 2nd when P-47D pilot Lt Valmore Beaudrault of the 365th FG caught an Me 262 out of fuel at low level, forcing it to crash land. Astonishingly, the pilot of the jet on both occasions was Oberfeldwebel Hieronymous Lauer who survived both encounters.

  • @DataDownLynk
    @DataDownLynk 3 года назад

    If you took a cylinder, cut a large slot in the top, took a large EDF and funneled the thrust into the slot and put a mesh screen in the slot to keep BBs from falling into the EDF when inverted. Then add six 6mm tubes routed to sprout out the historical gun locations. When you turn the EDF on it will fire all the BBs out the tubes. You can now have a compact MG setup where you can have wing guns and have pretty much all of the workings in the fuselage. Depending on the size of the EDF and the weight of the BBs(Heavier would be better), you could actually get it to shred the foam board.
