Originally posted by Rabbit: The US was also quite involved in the research being carried out in Germany too, and many great things were coming from it. Fighter jets for instance.
Umm...got a citation for that? The German jets were a huge surprise to Allied forces. Allied intelligence had a clue that something was coming, but they caught all the air force crews way off guard. The Americans and Brits were collaborating on engine design, and may have obtained some German plans by espionage, but I certainly don't think you can claim that they were working on fighters together.
