>Would've been the Ta-183, assuming Kurt Tank actually managed to unfuck the issues with the design
Ta-183 iterations would have been more of a late 1940s/early 50s step. I dont think they even made it past wind tunnel testing with the short time it had before the empire was destroyed. immediate succession of war time Me262 would most certainly have been improved designs of a functional jet relying on lessons learned from the old design. I.e. pic related
But ta-183 does follow the idea of a single jet engine fighter which became the norm as the style of the time
