All I do is quote STORMBIRDS
Nope. You don't only quote them - you even know why those pages are 'under construction'.

Quote:
So even STORMBRIDS had/has trouble making the wiki link types of connections
Once more, this is nothing but an assumption on your side. No fact, no quote.
You just suck it out of your fingers.

Quote:
When I stated the wings of the Me262 were swept to correct the cg
Only the outer wings as we have seen. As the rest of the world sees at least. But maybe not you with your tunnel vision.

Quote:
If there was any proof to support your faith based claims
Faith based claims?
You are funny.
Maybe you could present your 'hard facts' on the inner wing sweep?
Or Goddards 'working ballistic missile'?

Until then:

In that it was all done before by Robert Goddard
Links to his working ballistic missile please.

This is facts, btw:

Quote:
Hubert Ludewieg of the High-Speed Aerodynamics Branch at the AVA Göttingen in 1939 conducted the first wind tunnel tests to investigate Busemann's theory.[2] Two wings, one with no sweep, and one with 45 degrees of sweep were tested at Mach numbers of 0.7 and 0.9 in the 11 x 13 cm wind tunnel. The results of these tests confirmed the drag reduction offered by swept wings at transonic speeds.[2] The results of the tests were communicated to Albert Betz who then passed them on to Willy Messerschmitt in December 1939. The tests were expanded in 1940 to include wings with 15, 30 and -45 degrees of sweep and Mach numbers as high as 1.21.
This is faith; or even fake:
Quote:
And the high speed wind tunnel testing the Germans were working on was for planes flying faster than that.. Which is why they did not immediately make the connection that a swept wing is beneficial at sub sonic speeds.
Completely untrue, not supported by links or facts, just existing in your beautiful mind.
Faith you have, indeed, to the point where you twist bend and distort the facts. That's when it turns into fake.
And you complain about history channel? You are no better than them, even worse maybe.

Quote:
But as we now know the wings were swept to correct the cg and not to take advantage of swept wing theory/technology
Still false.
Only the outer wing was swept for correct of CoG as we have seen.

Have a faithful day.
