was just doing a dig through stuff (shelf on my room i have a tech manual for the Merlin XX - the Defiants powerplant) and found this... the Defiant was the star of a comic!

...i still have a load of these comics in my loft, i think they're still in print too....not many aircraft crews could gain 'Ace' ststus by using a rear powered turret and being inverted LOL!
and the US also used Defiants for Combat Crew Replacement training

Umm the Defiant!.....that's a good idea for the future. Will have to investigate further to see if can be a future project for us!
But then I'd love to see a Yak-50 or a Pilatus P.2
