i voted YP 80, as the MiG-9, while having more advanced axial flow engines, lacks pressurized ccokpit, boosted ailerons and DRF of the Lockheed; the MiG9 really didnt go anwhere, even after an extensive redesign, whereas the YP 80 went to be an extremely well used fighter by many countries, grew into the F-94 starfire, and gains its true longevity and widest useage in form of T-33 trainer

i would have voted for Ta-183, as it has the axial flow engines, deliberate sweep of wings, and integrated guided missle weapons, but there was never even a prototype built, and there is some question as to whether or not it could even fly safely

I am also looking for an all weather aircraft.



As I wrote before, I am also looking for one that I can carry lugadge and food on, so like I'f I fly around, and get hungry or thirsty, I have food.

i believe the "dark spot on the nose" was for the P 80s radar-ranging gunsight

Gibbage modelled the YP-80 kinda as a P-80 in a way also..in fact, i think he had a version with the DRF and tip tanks ready as well, but Oleg wasn't interested, as they didnt wasnt post-war types in the game at that time... Roll Eyes

The ME262 was the most advanced - PERIOD.

All later generation jet designs were based on it.
Cool

Could the P-80 or the Me-262 fly in rain?

Really? There seems to be a general lack of fighters with wing mounted engines these days. And why the 262 and not the HE280? Or the even earlier single engine Heinkel design?

And yes, Owl, both of those aircraft could fly in the rain. A tremendous downpour could pose some risk of flameout to a turbine engine, but, generally speaking, rain isn't an issue.

If the Me-262 was so advanced, why was it planned to be replaced by the Ta-183?


What is more expensive, Me-262, MiG-9, Ta-183 or YP-80.(It'l be great if you can put them in order to the most expensive.) I'n American dollars

The cost for the P-80 was initially around $110,000 per plane but the price dropped each year as more of them were produced.

I'm amazed you get people to answer your "polls". I'm sure everyone needs an "advanced" WWII era fighter to eat lunch in. Too funny.

I stand corrected. Excellent use of technology.

And just to be even more confusing an official USAF document from WWII says the P-80 cost $109,471 in 1944 and $71,840 in 1945.

page 134 of the document.
