Recently we made a video on the first ever production jet fighter, the iconic German Me. 262. It’s hard to overstate the importance of that aircraft… but just a few months into its service, it already had a proper rival. In July 1944, the Royal Air Force were already using the Gloster Meteor — subsequently the only jet aircraft on the Allied side that saw actual use in combat during the war. The story of the development of this aircraft is just as spectacular.
