Bird-Dog

The Gloster Meteor flew in WW2 but was restricted in action as the allies did not want the Germans or Soviets to get access if one was shot down . Work started on the engines in 1936 .They initially were used as defence against the V-1 shooting down 14 during the war and saw service in Europe but were never allowed to fly over enemy territory .They were involved in an exercise simulating attacks on allied bombers so the Allied fighters could formulate an effective defence against the ME262 . In March 1945 616 sqd flew armed reccae & ground attack operations and destroyed 46 enemy aircraft but never encountered the ME262.They were scrambled when Arado Ar 234 jet bombers attacked their Airfield . Probably due to the absence of air to air combat in this period the Meteor seems to miss out on mentioning .http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gloster_Meteor
