Meteor

Perhaps contentious, but I expected to see the Meteor on the list. Designed with engines mounted further outboard than would seem to make sense (other than prop clearance norms) it caused more RAF casualties than the ME262 and ME110 put together. A good performer for its time, but at an unacceptable cost.
