The issue with a jet version of single engine props is that they wouldnt really work that well… the airframe is wrong for how the engine draws in air – look at how the phantom or F86 Sabre look….far easier to design a new aircraft, Twin engine aircraft might work with early jet engines – stuff like the whirlwind!

HOWEVER – I do like the idea…. now some of the jet gen1 planes are beta statted over on Facebook (Blood red skies ready room)

Now rift Tech I’d either add 1 or 2 to the speed & 1 to the FP

US heavy bombers may have Tesla pods added for anti-fighter defense. May also be useful for close air support.

A lot of the modifications may be more subtle. For example, bailing out pilots or their planes may have the same gravity systems as on a Mudskipper to improve recovery chances. Or better radar, infrared, etc… for more night fighting and all-weather actions.
