With the Messerschmitt Me P.1092/3 design, the design team made more changes
to the P.1092. The cockpit was moved to the rear, where it was faired into
the single vertical fin. The air intake was now divided into two intakes,
located beneath the nose, and fed the single Jumo 004C jet engine. The
landing gear remained more or less the same, and with the forward fuselage
now unoccupied, a heavier armament of four MK
108 30mm cannon could be concentrated in the nose. This Messerschmitt
design bears a resemblance to the later Me P.1106,
and the same problems would have surfaced; namely, pilot visibility from
the cockpit located so far in the rear.
