I said they tried not that they succeeded 

You do realize the V-2 is a ballistic missile, correct?   :rolleyes:



The only way I think you could possible interpret "they tried..." was by bombing the launch sights.  Otherwise, I think you must be thinking of something other than the V-2.

"After the end of the V-1 threat, and the introduction of the supersonic V-2, the Meteor F 1 was not deployed further in combat against the Luftwaffe. The RAF was at this time forbidden to fly Meteor missions over German-held territory for intelligence security reasons, and in any case the greatly improved F 3 was in prospect."

Got that from wikipedia.

I do not believe that the Meteor would be effective in the Arena. According to wikipedia, the top speed of the F 1 was only 410mph at 10k (can someone confirm?). Last time I played, if i remember correctly, the K4 pushed 420 in level flight with WEP at 10k or something like that.

The Mk III is the one that is valid for adding to AH, not the Mk I.

I'm talking about the MkIII it does 486mph at sea level which can be hard to catch up with sometimes even out of a dive. And the K4 does 410mph WEP on at 10k.

they were only used to shoot down V1 Rockets, the RAF did not want to fly them over germany in fear off losing one to the Germans...however near the end of the war they were used in low level ground attack..with only 20 being produced and 17 being sent to the RAF squadron??

Deos that qualify for the plane to be added?

Im not for or against it, but would rather see some more Luft, Japanese and Russian birds first.

not to many 262s in service as well.
very few 163s i think too
