What do you think about jets like Gloster Meteor or even Republic XP-84 prototype? Is it possible to add some 1946-era planes? Meteor is even from '44 (f.3) or '45 (f.4)... Meteor can be used in intercepting v-1/ar-234 missions

No way, especially prototypes. Maybe after planes like Typhoon, Spit XIV, Tu-2, Ju-88C6, Me-410, or Ki-44 are added. These are far more important.

I think that "Luftwaffe 1946" is lowest priority, but the Gloster Meteor Mk. I was operational during WW2 and did useful work shooting down V-1s.

I'd still put it further back in the queue compared to many other planes, however.

Argentinian's may like to have it as a 1946, because it saw a little action overe there on some political turmoils.

Meteor Mk.3 was used more extensively (v-1s AND combat flies over Germany in the last months of war) than Mk.1 (V-1), and look at the numbers. Since 8 may of 1945, there was only 20 Mk.1s and over 100 Mk.3s

Ki-46 Tei would be really useful I think. Most produced variant of this beautiful plane. It wouldnt be too hard to make, just the fuselage needs to be extended a little bit. This extension was already present on the Hei, so the model ingame is wrong.

You're right. I had forgotten that a later mark made it into action before the war ended.

Sadly, the Meteor never encountered the Me-262 in combat. That's a dogfight mission I'd love to fly, although my money would be on the Me-262.

Why would you think that?
