Essex Class SCB-27A Modifications Diagram

Recommended Posts

I plan on building the Trumpter 1/700th USS Ticonderoga as the USS Kearsarge after undergoing the SCB-27A modification.  I have already acquired the new island from Model-Monkey along with the electric escalator.  I have the 5/38 single guns and the 3/50 twin guns on order.  I know that 14 3/50s were installed, but need a diagram showing where they went.  I also know that 8 5/38s were installed, a pair on each quadrant of the flight deck, but again, need a diagram.  I have only found one photo showing the location of the port forward pair go, but a diagram would work much better.  All of my searches have been fruitless except for the one photo that shows the port front pair.  Thanks for any help that you can come up with.

Later,

Dave

I will need to check my library when I get home for Essex Class Carriers (Warship design histories) by Alan Raven and Aircraft Carriers of the U.S. Navy by Stefan Terzibaschitsch as these may cover what you are asking
