the Boulton-Paul Defiant seater fighter was born. A totally revolutionary concept. The pilot should only deal with the pilot, while a rear gunner would take care of weapons, consisting of those in a turret armed with four guns of small caliber. (Now that I think many current aircraft operate so as F-14 pilot and 'scorer'). However
the device succeeded only on the day of its release, surprise, the CHTEmil MLXC Germans came from his six and there was the gunner be waiting. But the Germans soon began to hunt down the Defiant like flies, and these had to be relegated to white towing services ... and game night, where four eyes for a pilot focused only on the pilot and gunner focused only destroy the enemy, gave him an advantage.
David Thanks for the video!
