it was a good idea but it didnt work,some ones bright idea if it had some forward guns it would have helped.

lots of brave men died flying them.

I know its a defiant but it has a hurricane body. And btw, the first flights they took were VERY successful especially with the enemy behind them.

SO the safest place would be infront of them.... btw, was the tailgun 2 or 4 303's?

no it doesnt, it was completely different. Hurricane was built by Hawker and the Defiant was built by Boulton Paul.

4 x .303's

Different wing profiles, different construction, different manufacturer, different engine and fuselage... but, yeah I guess they're similar... they both have those roundels and.. oh they have pilots too.
