The propeller plane.
Sir Frank Whittle came up with an idea of jet engine.
The Gloster Meteor was the first British Jet, while the Messerschmitt Me 262 was the first German jet. However they both came out around the same time. Answer: The first jet fighter was Heinkel He 280, designed and built before WWII (and flown a couple of weeks after it started) it was rejected by the Luftwaffe as unnecessary.
It came from the French in 1690.
The Thunder Jet was the standard engine in the Cobra. There were 7,675 Cobras made in 1970. I cannot find a breakdown on how man came with the standard Thunder Jet engine and how many came with the Cobra Jet & Super Cobra Jet engines.

Jet planes ARE monoplanes. The old model of Victorious came with swept wing jet fighters and straight wing aircraft.
They didn't call it anything because before jet aircraft were invented all the other aircraft were too slow, and couldn't travel far enough distances for any real noticeable jet lag.
I think Goster Aircraft produced a Jet aircraft before the end of WW2. The first in production was the Messerschmitt ME 262. The ME 163 was rocket powered. i am a different writer and the jet engine was invented in 1930 whereas his invention actually flew in 1941
Hans Von Ohain's jet was the first to fly in Germany. Frank Whittle was the first to register a patent but came in nd.
Triassic came before

Although experiments were ongoing through 1930's the first jet to appear in the war was the German Me262 in 1944. Shortly afterwards, the Gloster Meteor came on the scene, but saw action for only a few months before hostilities ceased.
