Factual error: The ME 109 is actually a P-51A Mustang.

Factual error: Lou Gosset's character's uniform was REALLY wrong. He was wearing an officer's uniform with enlisted man's insignia on the lapels.

Factual error: The Me-263 was in fact a Rutan jet. Moreover, the Me-263 was only a rocket-powered project, while the most popular Nazi jet was the Me-262.
