+Introduced in [[Update 1.41]], the '''{{PAGENAME}}''' ''Narwal'' is the standard Me 262 A-1 armed with a single 50 mm [[Mk.214a (50 mm)|Mk.214a]] cannon in the nose instead of four [[MK 108 (30 mm)|30 mm MK 108]]. Due to the specialized armament, the Narwal will often struggle to land a hit onto any planes smaller than a bomber due to the low rate of fire of the cannon and relative inaccuracy (especially while stock). However, if it does, any aircraft smaller than a heavy bomber that is unfortunate enough to get hit by it would be instantly vaporized. As the Narwal has a much lower BR compared to the other Me 262 variants, it can further use its higher top speed against piston-engined fighter to quickly strike them down after they have bled most of their energy away in an attempt to chase you. However, it struggles against other jet fighters that have more reliable armaments.

+Since the Mk.214a autocannon is a derivative of the Pak 38 anti-tank cannon, the Narwal has access to a high-velocity HVAP-T shell with great penetration, allowing it to perform tank-busting duties very efficiently even without suspended armaments. It is not dissimilar to the [[Hs 129 B-3]] in this sense, but with much better top speed and mobility.

 The Me 262 A1/U4 was a modified version of the Me 262 designed to carry a single 50mm MK 214 cannon in the nose of the aircraft, which was capable of firing armor-piercing rounds.
 The history of the Me 262 A1/U4 dates back to 1943 when the German Luftwaffe was looking for ways to increase the firepower of the Me 262. The aircraft was already equipped with four 30mm MK 108 cannons, but these were not powerful enough to take out heavily armored targets like bombers. The solution was to mount a powerful cannon in the nose of the aircraft, and the 50mm MK 214 was chosen for the job. The Me 262 A1/U4 was developed by modifying existing Me 262 airframes, with the first prototype being completed in March 1945. The aircraft had to be extensively modified to accommodate the large cannon, including the removal of the nose wheel, relocation of the cockpit, and strengthening of the airframe to withstand the recoil of the cannon.

Light Pillboxes can be destroyed with a few hits using a high-angle dive (shooting through the roof), and from the side they can be destroyed by 4-5 hits; but in order to make sure you can pull out in time, start firing from a distance away if you want to destroy it in one pass. in Ground battles, use the same tactics.

Unlocking the belts and the 'New 50 mm Cannon' should be your highest priority, as the stock cannon has a large dispersion radius which nearly requires the pilot to shoot within 500m for an accurate hit. After this compressor and engine should be the next target as each one improves the acceleration of the "Pulkzerstörer" which is due to the design of all ''Schwalbe'' jets just short of awful. The remaining upgrades can be chosen at leisure. The cannon is not prone to overheat and top speed is not something to worry about as the 262 can only reach it with a dive anyway.

 The main tactic to use against bombers is a head-on attack or a long-range shot. Aim for the large fuselage, as the 50 mm HEI-T shell will ''obliterate'' any plane it hits in one or two shots or will knock out the pilot. In a deflection shot from above, a 50 mm HEI-T to the wing almost always shreds the entire wing of the enemy or severely damages the wing to the extent a bomber will be unable to fly. A high dive from behind the bomber will offer the biggest and easiest target, but this should be avoided against the [[B-29A-BN|B-29]].

Continue to climb until you reach around 5000 m then build up speed to hunt down enemy planes, fighters and bombers alike.

 Compared to other fighter-jets, the "Pulkzerstörer" has an extraordinarily long-range hitting power. A long-range shot can be attempted! Do not be afraid to shoot from up to 1.2 km away, as the 50 mm is very accurate especially when the upgrade is unlocked.

 =====Ammunition usage=====
-''Armored Targets Belt A''<br>
+''Armoured Targets Belt (AP-T)'' - The AP-T belt is a good omni-purpose round, though expect some shots to pass right through aircraft structures and do no damage. The AP-T contains an explosive filler which can detonate inside the fuselage of a plane or inside of a tank. In most scenarios, the first hit will damage the aircraft (or in rare cases set it on fire), and the second will be the final blow. In Ground Forces, aim for the roofs of tanks or the rear of tanks within 500 m to be effective. A well-placed shot to the ammunition of any tank will detonate the ammunition in most cases.
-''Armored Targets Belt B''<br>
+''Armored Targets Belt (HVAP-T)'' - The HVAP is extremely effective against ground targets and can penetrate up to 108 mm within 500 m. However, it lacks any explosive filler. Shots to planes will almost always result in the shell going straight through the plane with little or no damage. That being said; shots to critical components on planes such as wing spars or the fuselage may result in that component being blown off entirely.
-''Air Targets''<br>
+''Air Targets (HEI-T)'' - The Minengeschoß round will obliterate any plane on the first or second hit. If even one shell lands on an enemy, the enemy plane is at least critically damaged and will likely crash over time. Only in rare cases will this shell fail to destroy an enemy on the second shot (such as shooting the very end of a wing or elevator, or a heavily armoured fuselage). The B-29 is the only tough nut to crack with this ammunition due to its sheer size; aim for the wings or engines.
-'''Aim well, and you will be rewarded.'''<br>
+Aim well, and you will be rewarded. Do not overcompensate for the lead when aiming for planes- the 50 mm travels very quickly and in most cases (under 600 m) only a little lead is necessary.
