Did Pom-Poms and Bofors complement each other?

How did the Pom-Pom and Bofors complement each other when the Royal Navy operated both?

They were used mostly interchangeably, although Bofors offered more reach and the Pom-Pom emphasized rate and volume of fire.

The guns were used interchangeably rather than primarily as a complementary pair. The Bofors' extra maximum range could affect an approaching pilot's morale without greatly extending the effective kill range. That difference depended on ammunition, and standard British ammunition could bring its range close to the Pom-Pom's. The Pom-Pom emphasized rate and volume of fire, while Bofors development placed more emphasis on engaging aircraft at greater distance.
