is bomb disposal combat? lol
162 has a number of kills and has even been shot down by enemy aircraft. how many v1's brought down a meteor?
So what you are basically saying is someone who defuses live bombs for a living did not serve in combat, however someone that WAS shot, was in combat?
Torqoise how did you get yourself unbanned?
Meteor didn't face combat in a sense it did not face Fw190s or Me262s, it might of been placed in "green zones" where it faced no opposition - for good reason (read above since you apparently did not already).
The Meteor was in operational Strength and did tip a few V-1s over, and did some ground strafing. Yeah you can't compare it to ground troops on Iwo Jima, but it did serve in combat.
My opinion is the 162 has not a chance in hell to being added to Aces High, I'd vote on the P-80 being it was tested and evaluated, unlike 162 which was simply rushed as a last minute ditch effort to save whats left of Germany for the time.
