@Crashed131963 The Me-309 was an unsuccessful search to replace the Bf-109, not a test platform for the Me-262. Though one of the early prototype Me-262s did have a piston engine in the nose.

+@apfelsnutz The fuselage of the Me-109V1 survives at the Muzeum Lotnictwa I Astronautyki, Krakow, Poland.

+@marktweet7379 No Me-309 survives, so you saw something else. Only partial remains of the Me-209 variant survive in Poland.

@istinaanitsi3342 The Yak-15 was designed from the Yak-3 platform and fitted with Soviet copies of the Jumo 004, re-branded as the Klimov RD-10 turbine. The Russian Mig-9 fighter was a new platform that used Soviet copies of the BMW 003 turbine, re-branded as the Klimov RD-20.

@istinaanitsi3342 The Soviets were behind on jet development at the end of WW2. Stalin wanted to fast-track a jet platform, so he ordered the German engines copied and Yakovlev moved quickly to adapt the Yak-3 to the jet engine. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-os0KdUkDN0&t=277s

@istinaanitsi3342 Give your reasons why you believe the Me-309 was the source of the Yak-15.
