Defiant Flyable pls!

Probably because the Defiant was not a pilot's fighting aircraft. The pilot was a taxi driver in the Defiant, it was the rear-gunner who did all the shooting in that plane. I don't believe they even tried fitting forward firing guns to it, so there's not even a one-off historical prototype to base a plane on, unlike the i15p. If you wanted to fly the Defiant, you'd either sit there and let the gunner do the shooting, or like the IL*2 itself, let the AI fly while you take over the guns. The Defiant wasn't like the WW1 Bristol Fighter.
