Some Malta Spitfire Vc's had the 20mm cannons located the outboard cannon bays, and only the inboard set of .303 machine guns were retained. Does anyone know why this armament arrangement was used? The cannons were normally located in the inboard bay, until the development of the "E" wing. Were the outboard .303's deleted for weight reasons, or was there some other reason?
Thanks.
