As Germanies jet engine aircraft development progressed the priority from sometime in 1942 was the development of the Me262 fighter model. I'm curious about the results were the priority give to bomber development. How soon could the AR234 airframe been ready for production and operational groups stood up?
Assuming production reach 100 - 200 per month in late 1943 and a operational group ready at that point what would have been the best use for such a unit and would it have had any noticable effect on the war from that point?
My first thought is attacks on the Allied bomber fields in the UK during the winter of 1943-44. Could that have raised Allied bomber losses above the threashold needed to degrad the stratigic bombing campaign that winter?
