Re: What if the HO229 was put into service in 1941?
And, what exactly are you proposing to power this aircraft with? The Junkers Jumo 004 turbojet was not even a prototype at that point. Ohain's HeS 04 - 06 had severe problems particularly with fuel leaks and far less power.
A prop driven version would have no doubt been difficult and it is very likely that its performance would not have warranted its production.
