How would that even work with those early jet engines?
Didn't carrier planes stay prop driven for a bit even after Land based fighters all made the switch? -

didn't they need a huge takeoff run because >WW2 engines with fan blades made by old men hammering questionable alloys into shape
and runway to land since they weighed 6,000,000 lbs (one for every jew lost in the Holocaust)
i'd wanna see navalized Me-163s mounted onto destroyers or whatever ships they had left (the plane is going one way so pack a parachute, Hans)Woggy's Zeonic Frolicks likes this.
