It's a cool looking plane IMO, and the idea behind it was something "new".
Somehow , in the night fighter role, it anticipated the German Schräge Musik concept.
I reckon it was quite effective in that role too during BoB.

LOL how is it new, its a monoplane equivalent of the Bristol Fighter. Nothing new about it just an old idea on a new aircraft and it didn't work... at least the bristol fighter had forward firing guns as well as a rear gunner
