Add the Defiant to the List of Aircraft that would be a complete waste of time to spend development time and resources modeling.

-1.

I do hope that eventually planes like the Defiant are eventually added.  Not for general MA usage, it would just be a hanger queen, of that there is no doubt but it does have a place in scenarios.

It was in fact a night fighter during the Battle of Britain. Or as someone phrased it in an earlier thread a "night hunter."

Not much of a night fighter either.  Not much night in AH.

And how are you going to fly it and gun the turret at the same time?  A mandatory 2 player plane?  Why you'd want a fighter with no forward guns is beyond me.  It clearly didn't work.
