Jet Fighters over Italy?
I´m trying to get out of Anzio beachead (Erik´s US 43-44) and suddeenly faced a couple Me 262´s over my head! How is it possible? Schwalbes were only operational by the end of 1944! Has this campaign turned to be a what if scenario?
Re: Jet Fighters over Italy?
18th July 1944 first Me 262's combat flight, 26th July 1944 first air combat involving Schwalbe (leutnant "Bubi" Schreiber shot down Mosquito)
But there should be a lot of Do 217s and He 111s with Fritz X and Hs 293 radio controlled bombs to fight with the ships over Anzio beachhead
Are they there?

The jet may be an error in my source, I'll check.

Hi Erik;
May I suggest you to replace the jets by FW 190´s or late war italian fighters?

There are no wonder weapons in OOB, so I've substituted with available unit types.
