Thanks for finding these. Looks like Westland had abandoned all pretence of having a gunner blasting away at all directions at oncoming fighters, and provided a system purely for ground support. Which would have been fine with a decent fighter escort arrangement.
But I believe a Lysander managed to shoot down a He 111 over France during the phoney war, and since I don't think the Mk IIIA with the guns in the wheel spats was in service yet, it must have used the Observer's gun.
