Bandai
The Messerschmitt Me 262 made history as the world's first operational jet fighter.
The designation "U4" refers to a conversion kit designed to transform the Me 262 into a "Pulkzerstörer" (formation destroyer).
The objective was to engage Allied bomber formations from a safe distance—beyond the effective range of their defensive gunners. To this end, a 50mm Mauser MK 214 A cannon was installed in the nose section. Only a few prototypes were built and tested. One of these—"Wilma Jeanne"—fell into the hands of U.S. forces.
