"That's about it" my arse! There's more detail as in leds and one last hatch.
We have had a lighting strike Sunday lunchtime and our internet router has been fried so I'm using my phone via a " hot spot" backup

Very nicely done on the Driver's pit, Phil, just needs fag packets, cotton waste and general military litter...

"Anybody know anything about this periscope blank behind and underneath the hatch assister spring?"

Try these, more work I'm afraid.

The cupola detail is quite extensive, the more you look the more you see.
