Actually as it's a continuation me262 with modern jet engines, overcoming the biggest issue with the original and if the fadec was altered has massively more thrust than the original it would put up a bit of a fight

Out of interest Howard Hughes bought one to race at the Cleveland races against the p80 shooting star and the us government stopped him. Only bad point was poor engines, the fuselage and wings are excellent. Those wings fathered the sabre and hunter. While focke wolfs wing design heavily influenced soviet fighter development
