Just thinking of the earliest days of No. 486 (NZ) Squadron, equipped with all-black Hawker Hurricanes and trained up to become night fighters in close collaboration with Douglas Havocs (Turbinlite ones I think, complete with very heavy batteries). The Hurricanes were termed as "satellites" - I think the Havocs lacked all guns, which was where the Hurricanes were expected to step up and provide the firepower (Havocs provided the electrical stuff).
