Country: | No Erich, it was build in the US and then shipped to Germany and it was also given a real Messerschmitt cereal number my the Messerschmitt company. In the World Airnews I read that they had problems to get it out of the US because the US government had problems with the fake 30 cal in the nose of the Me-262 and saw the aircraft still as a object of war and thus had problems at customs.

Tango Tango was the first Me-262 to fly over Berlin since WW2 and this was at the ILA 2006 which I have started a thread about when the ILA was happening here in Germany. You may check it out, there are photos and such not in the thread.

Country: | Even this one? Apparently it's not one of the US built ones. The reason I asked is because of the extremely temperamental nature of the Jumo 004s originally used.
