The 162 would be interesting, but I don't think it would get the usage you think it will because it would be a "ripper". The 162 is made primarily of WOOD and was made to be a cheap alternative to the 262. I'd bet running that beast up to 500mph and pulling some high-Gs is likely to get you the sound of splintering wood and a quick trip into the dirt. I also remember that there was an issue with "snaking" at high speed / high AoA that was mitigated (but not completely fixed) by the downturned wingtips. Even if we got the A-2 model, this thing has short legs - 30 minutes at full fuel at sea level IRL - then add a fuel burn mult of x2 for the MA. 2x20mm with 120rpg is OK (A-2 model).
If your mission is to up quickly, climb fast, make a couple passes against some bombers and then run for home - the 162 would be an interesting alternative - a midpoint between the 163 and the 262.
If they make it, I'll give her a try, but I think there are probably better rides to add first.
