About the best idea for it too.
Even as a night fighter, they weren't too successful, with only four brownings against all that armour plate.
The lack of forward firing guns was a big mistake, but even with them, it wouldn't have been manoeverable enough to vie with 109's with all that weight to carry around. The turret and gunner I mean.
I reckon it was designed by people of a similar mindset to those who thought the 'big wing' was a great idea.
Poor old Defiant.
