Blenheim. It’s a great apricot.

It was poorly defended with 1 .303 machine gun in the nose and one in the turret..

And carried a smaller bomb load than single engine fighter bombers in 43'-45'.

One the RAF should have done in 1940 was conduct low-level raids on Luftwaffe airfields along the French coastline either at dusk or at dawn during the Battle of Britain. Using Bristol Blenheims, they would have forced the Luftwaffe to waste precious fighter resources trying to defend the airfields and would have made it much easier for the RAF to take down Luftwaffe bombers and Ju 87 Stuka dive bombers.
