The Gloster Single Seat Heavy fighter was a single seat variant of Gloster two-seat night-fighter F18/40 spec but with the ammunition for 8 0.303” mg occupying the space for the radar operator in that aircraft. It could be a very nasty aircraft to be on the wrong end of (4 x 20mm cannon and 8 x 0.303” MG) and had the very apt company name of ‘Reaper’. It had the earlier F9/37 wing but was Merlin powered but it couldn’t have been brought into service any sooner than 1942.
