The ME-262A1 Swallow is a fully animated, detailed model boasting numerous features. Its cockpit is intricately designed, and its canopy opens realistically. Extendable landing gear conceals into the model's body, while flaps, elevators, rudder, and spinning turbine blades provide dynamic animation. This downloadable model comes in nine formats, with included textures and materials. The ME-262A1 was the first operational jet fighter in combat, initially facing development challenges and delays due to engine issues and resource scarcity during WWII. Despite these setbacks, it made an impact against Allied bombers in 1944, offering a significant technological advancement that was difficult for Allies to counteract. Regrettably, its production couldn't change the war outcome, but captured planes were studied and contributed to designs like the F-86.
