'Eagles on the Attack" Two P-51's dive in on an Me262

Tried to do tracers but they failed and looked cartoony. Anywho, enjoy. Probably the last of this set I will do, had a good time using these models.

I was bored, and since it's my birthday, I like committing random acts of kindness.

SpitIX and P51 (forget the variant) could infact keep up in a dive.

Not bad. Really odd camera angle though. I imagined this from above and behind P51s booming and zooming the Me262.

Ya I wanted it as if the 262 was zooming passed and now your looking at the P51s about to open fire.

I love it.

[BraceWuyne]

Damn, are the 262 pilots aware of the Mustangs? Seeing how the 262 is a jet fighter the P-51's would be hard pressed to catch up to them. I don't know what my point is..I can't explain it. anyways I love aviation and WWII so this is a double win. Awesome.

Key phrase though is "in a dive the 51's could catch up" well the rest of the time they would fail and end up being shot down by the ME-262.

P-51's would keep up in a dive and generally outrun a 262 in the first 700kph of the dive if they set economy power and max RPM, however, the P-51 beat the 262 in all forms of flat fighting like scissors simply because the 262 was a terrible turner and it's roll rate was horrible. Though the two 30mm's in the nose hurt like hell compared too 6 .50's The P-51's and Spitfire IX's did a damn good job keeping in tow with the 262.

At first glance I thought it was a 109 because of the control cable, but then looking at the tail shape I can see its a 262.
