The aircrafts are for sure no Fairey Battles
These single-engined planes were land-based and had been used in the defence of France in May 1940, where they had horrendous losses and were not used in action thereafter.

The aircrafts on the photo are probably Grumman Avengers, which were carrier-based and stationed on the British escort carriers in 1944.
