at the 1944 version (and perhaps the 1946 one) you still have to add the american quadruple 40mm Bofors mounting on the superstructure abreast the after mast

You're too much of a geek for your own good: If you really wanted to help him, you'd SHOW him where those guns are supposed to go. Now you're just being a smartass. Unlesss you can actually be constructive, AND polite, maybe you should pipe down a bit.

Regarding the jammer I was in doubt, because it wasn't on the seatrials photos, but it appeared on pics which were dificult to date precisely 1942 or 1943. But it is now removed.
Regarding all the other weapons it was a very difficult task. The weapons info I've already got, but comparing to pictures it was impossible to get the amounts of weapon to fit. To example the US quad IS mounted on the 1946 edition (aft mast), but I couldn't find 1944 pics where it was shown :( I realize that the armament possibly isn't 100% represented, but I've choose to show what could be seeing on pics rather to guess something up. I've got a lot blueprints like drawings, but they also differ from each other. A last thing; it also a question of balancing to draw correct without the drawing being to cramped ;)

In fact not (it is true that this is a can "exaggerate")
I just do not like it to use his position as moderator, while my criticism (drawing comments) is basically...TRUE
I am always amazed on shipbucket to see some guys trying to draw ships...without really know them...

Your critisism is both true, and annoying, because you weren't actually being HELPFUL. You just wanted to look better.

Also, did you think I told you off simply because you were being a smartass in this thread, or might it have been that we've actually recieved complaints about your behavior?

If I were you I'd think carefully about that.
