The only reason RAF aircraft would be flying supersonic over London is if they were closing on a suspected hostile target.

There is more to this story that we do not know.

I’ve heard of the Lancaster. It was a bomber, not a fighter I believe.

Yes, a heavy bomber. The Blenheim was a medium bomber, and the Mossie was a twin engine fighter/recon aircraft, made mostly of fir.

Apparently a flight from Israel to the US went missing on ATC scopes in England and RAF jets were scrambled. JPost.com story here.
