You could try adding them all up, we had a few quite unreliable ones in total which had no impact on the battle. In fact when they tried to fit 4 in a Spitfire later they had issues with getting enough heat to the outside ones, and that is why you see so many Spits with only two. They used the 4 gun version o seas.
