Proposal to Add the Messerschmitt Me 262 HG III to War Thunder

Historical Justification

The Me 262 HG III Hochgeschwindigkeit was an advanced and secret development of the Me 262, aimed at increasing the platform’s speed and aerodynamic efficiency. Although it never entered service due to material shortages and the collapse of the Reich at the end of the war, the project did in fact exist, with recorded aerodynamic studies.

Technical Characteristics

Engines: 2 × Heinkel HeS 011, 2863 lbf (12.75 kN), 1950 lbs (885 kg)

Armament: 4 × 30mm MK 108 cannons

Estimated Speed: 1050–1100 km/h

Wings: 45° swept wings

Fuselage: Extended and cleaner design than previous models, resembling the profile of later supersonic fighters

Comparison with Vehicles Already in the Game

War Thunder already features numerous experimental or prototype vehicles that never entered active service, such as:

E-100, Object 279, the American T29 to T34 series, Ho-Ri Production & Prototype, OF-40, UDES 33, Vickers Mk 7, etc.

This shows that War Thunder already embraces vehicles based on design studies, prototypes, or limited production runs.

I don’t think this would be valid for a suggestion, as it was paper/model only

Bare minimum is unfinished prototypes (who have unique parts built, example being E-100), but this is just paper

And for vehicles being paper/mockups ingame, they’re slowly being removed, or so I guess as that’s what is happening, like recently with the R2Y2’s

The only HG i think woould be possible to add would be the HGII wich was build but bombed on the Airfield befor it was tested

Unless your german great uncle Herman had one stored in a shed I don’t think so.

So a Me 262 a2a with HeS 011 is fair game since the engine was built (late prototype stage and even strapped to an aircraft to test inflight characteristics) and we have projected performance data for that combo? Seeing as that is still more grounded in reality than the KH-38MT.

For it to be suggested, the bare minimum would be a unfinished prototype with unique parts that cant be found on other things. As far as I know, that variant didnt have anything unique built, as it was paper, as even the engine was found on other platforms

In game additions do not change suggestion rules for things to be added like that
