This is a beast of a Felixstowe F2.A. The wing guns would be 360° against higher targets. An enemy fighter attacking from in front could find itself picking up 6 A damage cards! Presumably it also kept at least 1 rear gun as well. I wouldn't like to be sitting in one of those nacelles for hours and hours on anti submarine patrols.
