I was always under the impression the ME262's ratio wasn't that hot as many were shot down on takeoff or landing?
It downed 500 allied planes and it was shot down 100 times....So that would be a 5.9:1 kill-to-loss ratio.Many were shot down while landing taking off, but even that taken into account the kill/loss ratio is around 6:1. Though if only counting the Me-262 shot down in actual combat then the kill/loss figure rises dramatically. How high I am not sure.
TO roughly 400 kills possibly to the Me 262 units. over 500 alone are accredited to JG 7 but that is too high
Around 1,200 Me-262's were destroyed, by strafing, bombing etc etc.. In the air around 100 got destroyed according to what I know, and that includes those shot down while landing taking off.
