It wouldn't be very hard to implement a radar operator for a Nightfighter scenario i assume. Imaginary radar operator also would be ok.
Interesting scenario indeed, otherwise it would need more planes like the Avro Manchester, Armstrong Whitworth Whitley, Short Stirling, Handley Page Halifax or Handely Page Hampden, the Defiant as Nightfighter and on the German Side not only BF 110 and Ju 88 also a HE 219, DO 217J or DO 217N would be pretty cool.
