I think that possibly two or more quite separate incidents have become conflated here.

There were no German bombers over London when it was being bombarded by V1s that I am aware of. To have sent bombers would have endangered the aircraft, particularly if flying so low in daylight as to see the outline of a man's face. Spotter planes were not required as the V1 wasn't very accurate.

Regards,

Peter
