Each Squadron consisted of three Flights of three planes (=9 planes). There were six such Squadrons per group (=54 planes). And there were six such groups (=324 planes).

Only one group of 54 planes continued on into London, minus however many losses they had along the way.

There were three-hundred '30-inch 20 CWT QF Mk.1 Stand-Alone B' artillery lined up along their flight path to greet them.

Just so there's no confusion, this was not playable. I slowed the game down to it's slowest running speed, put the plane under AI control, and recorded using FRAPS at 16fps, then sped it up again in editing. I just wanted to see what it would look like on maximum settings and with a huge amount of objects on screen. I think I could cram more in and would like to set up a more realistic scenario, but it would take a lot of effort.
