A tiny refinement of a drawing that is some 8 years old. One 40mm pod, plus four 0.50 Vickers were the idea for a survivable tank-buster. Note the radiators relocated in the inner wing. Extra fuel tanks in outer wings.
I don't know how much of performer it would've been. Probably a bit faster than an OTL Hurricane with same engines, with much better RoC. Talk about performance between Beaufighter II and Mossie FB versions. Instead of cannon pod, strap a torpedo for anti-shipping duties? Cannons instead of HMGs. Will need stronger U/C than the OTL Hurricane, not that is a deal breaker.
As a long range fighter, the twinned Spitfire is a much better choice.
