I know, I know, i know....

Fill in the blanks please Dickie:

Centres on Dungeness(?), starting radius V miles (so 2 * V mile diameter for the geometrically challenged), starting height W feet, compressing linearly over a X minute period down to a minimum radius of Y miles and Z feet.

Your only blanks are whitespace.

Can we lose the two inboard-most guns and substitute them for cannons instead?

I like the cut of your jib, young LuftAsher. And with that in mind, we can go two better than that. With my engineering overcoat on I've discovered, by judicious placement of the cannons, that we can keep the inner most guns, and we have the added bonus of being able to do without the clumsy metal under carriage!

What is there not to like?!!

Of course, you only get two cannon rounds, one per cannon, but I do believe they'd make a mess of any enemy aircraft, or galleon for that matter, that fills your sights.

My work here is done - Sydney Camm eat your heart out.

I'm pretty sure we just collectively BTFO every major aircraft designer of the Second World War. Well done, boys.
