Appearances can be deceptive ![Evil](https://www.pprune.org/images/smilies/evil.gif)
It had the lot, one fixed forward-firing MG, one free-mounted MG in rear cockpit, plus bombs or torpedo for good measure, but none show on the original image

Sure was
!! Not paying enough attention really, too much of a flap after screwing up my Puffin silhouette in the rush to post and then finding you'd got there first, but then withdrew your challenge, I should have spotted the collective lever ![Embarrassment](https://www.pprune.org/images/smilies/embarass.gif)
No Mate, it's mounted on the wing support strut, well clear of the prop-swing

Edit: to include next question
That long pitot doesn't appear in many photos, although it is very clear in in the image I used (maybe of the prototype) I would ignore it

A Parasol monoplane
Edit to say that the gap in the vertical stab, apparently to allow adjustment of the incidence of the Horizontal stab, appears in most drawings, but few photos, so I assume that adjustment was not required and it was omitted sometime in production
