Ferranti Blue Fox Radar: Someone can help me ?

Hi,

I'm building an Airfix SHAR FRS.1, 1/48 scale, and want to open the nose and make the Ferranti Blue Fox radar from scratch, but it's too much dificultly to find pictures of this radar and the open nose position. For example, i don't know if nose opens for a side or up...

Searching in Google, i found some pictures, but i'm not right if they represent correctly the radar used on FRS1.

These are some pictures i found (and i think are not the radar i want :hmmm:):

If someone knows about it and has some link or picture to share, i really appreciate. I'm searching in the forum, but not find any topic yet.

Thanks !

PIcs of Blue Fox are not that common - and most if not all, of the units were scrapped after the FA2 conversion. I'll see what I have (IIRC there is one at the East Fortune Museum)

EDIT: here's a pic of it:
