The replica 262 is quite different to the original, first of all it was build on the specifics of the two seater version of the 262 and then modded for a single seater cockpit with a different structural internal layout compared to the original, it also uses different wing sweeps to deal with center of gravity issues provided by it's modern jet engines. It's far better then nothing but still a bastard.
