Worse in what?
Arado:

• Payload? Not as much as the B17, but that's compensated for by the short time it takes to reach the target, drop bombs, respawn and come back again.
• Gunners? Not as much as any bomber, but that's compensated for by the speed, with which no piston pilot can even dream of flying.
• Manouvrability? It'll turn just as hard or easy as a B17. Admittedly, it's less agile then the He-111, but that's compensated for by payload.

Fighter jets:

• Armament? Me-262 has some nice cannons on there, with less recoil than similar planes.
• Manouvrability? Obviously compensated for with speed.
• Armor? So what? It's not like anyone keeps up.

I have respect for people that can B&Z, and with some planes you must, but all the planes that are designed for B&Z instead of T&B are still vulnerable to other aircraft, except for the jets. A master of B&Z will be invincible in a jet, period. Unless someone else grabs a jet.

Depends, an ME 262 can be easy to shoot down unless you have experience pilots who knows not to out turn a piston fighter..
