Henley was faster than the Battle by some 40 mph, at least by the 'book' figures. That is a major advantage, leaving less time for the intercepts to happen, and reducing the time the A/C will be in the AA kill zone. Faster target is a worse target from the AA gunner's point of view. Henley was smaller, so again it might've been a tougher target to hit.


OTOH, Henley is still some 50-60 mph slower than the Emil.

 



Have Austin make Henleys instead of the Battles? Historically, Gloster produced 200 Henleys.


As for what to make instead of Defiant, I'd suggest for the n-th time to make the Spitfires at BP instead.
