Or some decent nuts, bolts and washers!

It seems obvious to me that after 1942 German manufacturers were convinced the war was lost and were simply milking the scenario to develop and test new weapons that they thought would be good sellers after the war assuming Germany would still exist. With time fast running out the Me262 made no sense at all while the He162 was with its huge speed advantage on hit and run type of attacks either against ground targets or bombers, cheap and fast construction and single engine made total sense. Had the He162 been developed a few years earlier, and used in ground attack mode, it would have had a significant impact on the progress of the war. It would have been like having thousands of A10 Thunderbolts with no allied equivalent. Put bluntly, German manufactures hastened the end of the war as did the Nazi elite who had selfish, naive and childish emotional preferences.
