Pretty much what it looks like.  I don't think the Roc saw combat though, the Skua was the version that fought.

the roc saw action around the time of dunkirk, along with the skua...lots of casualties.

If there is ever a scenario that this thing is overwhelmingly prominent, I'd be willing to bet the SBD would serve as a good substitute.  Yes?   :D
