The Messerschmitt Me 262 F is a German attacker aircraft used to great effect in the latter stages of the Second Weltkrieg as well as throughout the entirety of the Cold War. It is essentially a modified Me 262 fit with Heinkel HeS 011 engines, new inverted gull wings not unlike those of the Junkers Ju 87D and two MK 103 autocannons with much greater ground-attack capability. Though unable to put in the speed that its predecessor could (with a top speed of around 750 km/h), the Me 262 F can carry an astounding amount of ordnance with greater low speed manoeuvrability.

Ace Pilots
The Luftwaffe was, at the Second Weltkrieg's outbreak, the most well-trained air force in the world. This commitment to quality over quantity was kept despite the changing priorities of an industrial war. If this aircraft's pilot has a Flying skill of at least 3, add an Easy DM to all of their actions; if their Flying skill is 6 or above, add a Very Easy DM to all of their actions.

Stormbird
Soviet forces, having thought they had perfected the art of anti-air warfare, came to dread the Me 262's bomber variant; the Sturmvogel. It seemingly materialised from thin air with a deafening shriek, rained hell on its targets, and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Add a Hard DM to non-missile weapons targeting the Me 262 from the ground.
