The bottom line is that Defiant and Battle, totaling 3265 airframes (!) are by 1939 the closest thing from a Hurricane and a Spitfire in large scale production - unlike the Miles M-20, unfortunately for this wonderful and cute fighter.


Turn a fraction of those 3265 Merlins / airframes / production into a decent fighter... hit gold.


I kind of like Robunos swap of Battles for fighter-bomber, no-turret Defiants

(= P.94 indeed).


How should we call that hybrid ? Batiant ? Defitle ? ROTFL


And 12 machine guns - I know Hurricanes were to get that armement (or they got it in the end, can't remember) but Defiant would have more room for it. Plus guns - LW bombers would be turned into lose chards of metal.
