V1s have no inteligent thought behind them. The only reason they were dangerous was if they blew up in a big fireball when they were shot down. Pilots even then learned to fly with one wing disrupting the airflow over the V-1, so they tumbled out of the sky rather than blew up.

Doesn't make it "combat" to me. More like a training exercise with live ammo.

No it couldn't.

The statement you are referring to was about taking bomb loads to Berlin if i recall correctly.  The bomber Mossies with the bulged bomb bay could carry the same bombload (4k cookie) as a B-17 on long range ops.  Hopefully Karnak will be along to correct me if i am wrong.
