Isn't speculation fun?
OK, 262s are operational in some numbers.
The war is prolonged.
The US then deploys P-80s in numbers that the Luftwaffe cannot match.
Game over.
Or...
A a massive night B-29 raid escorted by P-80s, P-51Hs, and P-82 Twin Mustangs, flys to Berlin one night. Only one B-29 has a bomb though...
Game really over.
Any scenario that the pro-facisti can come up with is easily countered.
