At this speed it’s br 4.0-4.3 and that’s the maximum

Yes i was thinking the same thing! It would be a great jet bomber at that Br and there are still other planes that can catch up with it! So like you said 4.0 - 4.3 will be a balanced br for it!
Woa it can only go this slow? That’s interessting.
at 6000-7000 meters of altitude for the first jet engines?
thats more than enough imo.
we can place this at 5.0 or smnthn

This seems like a very interesting additions! I love these WW2 additions and I really wish we see others like the Me 262 B-1a/U1 night fighter as well.

I think that you messed up. Your suggestion is for the Versuchs 1 (V1) testbed airframe only meant for testing of the wings, not the actual definitive aircraft as designed [Versuchs 3 (V3)], hence the lack of armament, low top speed, & fixed landing gear:

Thank you for the information i will correct this as soon as possible!

And what version is this V2? or V3?
V3 because the V3 was armed and the V2 looks like this:

What about OKB-1 EF 131 and 140?

Sadly a -1 from me. The V1 was a testbed and nothing more, no bomb-bay, no armament, unretractable landing gear, ~300 kph maximum achieved top speed. Utterly useless ingame even as a 1.0 plane simply because it was never armed and had neither plans nor provisions to be armed.
I think if we ever see a Ju 287 ingame it would be the V3, which was only partially built, but even then it’s dubious as I think only a mockup wing was constructed that was specifically linked to the V3 to test an engine setup, otherwise only wind-tunnel models and wood mockups existed.
For “high” tier jet bombers, Germany really only has two more options, the OKB-1 series (EF 131, EF 140 and EF 150), and the Canberra B.2, unless Gaijin would be fine with adding the proposed Ju 287 V3, which is sadly a pretty paper-based plane, with limited flight performance data from the V1, which would not be representative of how the forward swept wings would perform at speeds the Ju 287 V3 was projected to fly at, meaning around 800-900 kph.
So in conclusion, no to the V1, but a pretty hopeless yes to the V3.

I think the V3 would be a viable option to add. Also I have a question. Would it be in any way possible to see the Me 262 B-1a/U1 night fighter ever added to the game? I think it could work even though the mission it flew really isn’t present in the game anymore.

Thank you for the images and documents! I’m back from my short vacation and will get on updating this suggestion to the V3!
The V-3 is a definite yes if that could be added with the V-2 being an event vehicle.
Definite +1 from me if both could be added.
Why the V3 version in particular?
