Well, technically the pilot would end up as a prisoner of war.
The effectiveness is questionable. Ok, they could have severly damaged the east coast harbours which could have disrupted reinforcements and supplies.
But I think the effect would be much larger on a psychological scale. The V1 and V2 were able to reach London. This would have reached the east coast. How far would the next one go?
