So if I may ask, what really were the problems of the Me 309? As far as I know problems with the nosewheel delayed the test flights and that it didn't really show so much improvements in speed. But to be fair, the government didn't really had any interest in it.
So what would have had to change so that the Me-309 could beat the Focke-Wulf Fw 190D, or the entire Fw 190 in itself?
And if that could be achieved, then how do you think it would have stood against the OTL 109 variants and its enemies?
Second question is. Let's say that the Heinkel He 112 V2 got the Jumo engine roughly at the same time the Bf 109 prototype did, so that the later can't take too much spotlight away from the Heinkel. And let's say the V2 variant didn't crash 2 times so that they had to resort to the V1.
That still wouldn't solve the weakness of the He 112 against the Bf 109, but give it more breathing room to improve. What should have been changed so that it sticks?
