Hey Mick, the Defiant is my favourite aircraft, it's not easy to use in CFS3 without being in multiplayer but a broadside attack is the best tactic! Very satisfying when those brownings start chattering!

At night, one can get underneath and port or starboard without much awareness by the bomber.

As there was talk earlier about Corsairs ... Still enjoy these AH classics, the AH F4U Corsair series...
Is there a series of repaints for the AH Corsairs ?

8-9 May 1941 3NJG3 vs 78 Sqdn Whitney
short clip the action
NAVIGATION: After take off from Fliegerhorst Gilze-Rijen, and trimming your Do215B-5, feel free to warp to wp6, and then toggle on GCI (Shift + R)for instructions to intercept a 'kurier'. After combat and from wp8, toggle off the GCI. You then could warp to wp11 where you should toggle on the ILS Lorenz beam (Shift + I), which you should pick up just before wp12, where you should turn to 69° and wp13. There you should turn to 99° to stay in the center of the beam for you final approach and landing at Gilze-Rijen.
<SuccessMessage>A good abscuss; a Whitney, although you thought that it was a Wellington; which you git before it could attack its target.
Although in actual fact this Whitney must have been a 'Super Whitley' as it just would not go down, damage boxes??

Clip from 8-9 August 1941 Hamburg Wellingtons.xml
<Overview>NAVIGATION: You are on the final approach to bomb shipyards in Hamburg. Bomb at wp2. Feel free to warp from wp3 to wp7, if you can. There are German night fighters about.. At which point turn to 307° for final approach at wp8, where you will turn to 20° to follow the approach to runwa 02.</Overview>
<Intelligence>Be carful of german night fighters! In mid-1941, NJG 1 began experimenting with Lichtenstein radar, which was testing to become operational.On the night of 8/9 August 1941, Becker and his radio operator (Bordfunker) Josef Staub, also became the first Luftwaffe night fighter crew to intercept an enemy bomber using airborne radar.Flying Dornier Do 215 B-5 "G9+OM" equipped with the FuG 202 Lichtenstein B/C radar, they tracked and claimed another Wellington bomber shot down.The aircraft shot down was Wellington T2625 GR-B which crashed near Bunde.</Intelligence>
<SuccessMessage>Good that you got away from that night fighter</SuccessMessage>
<FailureMessage>You did not return to base, so you are posted as MIA and your next of kin will be notified as soon as we hear more.</FailureMessage>

<Intelligence>This is the intial operating A.I. radar for our night fighters, so we need to test it.</Intelligence>
<SuccessMessage>Good show old boy!</SuccessMessage>
<FailureMessage>Well try again tomorrow. This AI radar and night fighting is no piece of cake!</FailureMessage>
Mind you; that was a long drawn out combat which nearly ended in a crash into the channel!
