In the final result, nothing.

The US had uncontested air supremacy by the time the German jets took to the air, and while they were a stunning success individually, there were too few of them to make any change to the final result.

What were jet engines used for in ww1 and World War 2?

The jet engine was not used in World War 1 because it was not developed until World War 2 by the German Luftwaffe Nazis. They used the fast Jets as fighter jets. There were not many used because their jet plane had problems and they had no methods of dealing with the G Forces. The pilots were not well versed in using jets yet and they struggled using the ones that were built. The US, UK and the USSR did grabbed up the jet technology when the war ended.The jet engine was invented by Frank Whittle (first one ran in April 1937, patent granted in 1932), at roughly the same time von Ohain in Germany came up with the same idea but his early versions couldn't run under their own power (and therefore don't qualify as jet engines) - the first German jet engine ran in September 1937. The Heinkel 178 was the first jet fighter to fly but the RLM (German Air Ministry) decided that jet aircraft weren't needed and cancelled the programme.The Germans and the British had jet fighters in service (Me 262 and Meteor).The claim that "The US, UK and the USSR did grabbed up the jet technology when the war ended" is slightly misleading in that all of those natioSavens already had their own jet engines and were developing them more, but ex-German technology was looked at.
