About
The Me 262 A‑2a “Sturmvogel” is a German jet-powered fighter-bomber (Tier 3, Level 7 Premium). It removes one set of 30 mm MK 108 cannons to make space for nose-mounted bomb racks. It’s fast, with a top speed of 870 km/h, but has high stall speed (230 km/h) and a sluggish turn and roll performance (turn ~27.9°/s, roll ~134°/s). Its thrust-to-weight ratio is low (~0.3), and it operates best at high altitudes
Playstyle
Functioning as a pure energy fighter, the Me 262 A‑2a excels at hit-and-run tactics: use its speed and dive performance to strike enemies, then climb away before your high stall speed becomes a liability. Despite its premium rewards, avoid turning fights—its agility is poor
