And give the Japanese a bomber to start with, Peggy, Betty or Emily etc., and a KI-43 or 61. Besides that a bomber for VVS and of course the IL-2.

If the me262 is introduced we at least will really see what these planes were like.we'd get an idea of the shock that performance must have caused.
So i would hope that we dont get the gloster meteor as if we get an allied plane which again closes the technology gap the whole impact of the arrival of the me262 would be spoiled.
Id still like to see the gladiator one day but lets see planes that saw action first?
please dont give me the old...........
'gloster blah blah shot 12 rounds at blah blah on october 5th 1945 blah blah so it did see action blah blah'.. .stuff OK?

The Meteor wasn't much faster than the fastest late war piston engine fighters. It was far more maneuverable than the 262 but nowhere near as fast. (AFAIK)

Meteor MkIII could do about 480mph.  The MkIV, which entered service just before Japan surrendered, could do about 600mph.  The Meteor also had a range of more than 1000 miles on internal tanks, significantly more than the 262.

I agree with hazed that the Me262 should be introduced several AH versions earlier than the Meteor.  I do think that the Meteor MkIII should eventually be added as a perk though.  I don't think that the Meteor MkIV should ever be added to AH.

I think the Spitfire XIV shuld be added so the Luftwaffles can get an idea of the shock it's arrival must have caused to a Luftwaffe flying only 190A7s and 109G6s  
We of course shoudn't ever get the 190D9 and 109G10 because it again coses the technology gap
