I've been trying to find you some information on the Mk.33 gun directors on the early versions of these ships (basically to no avail online). I had planned to draw those as a standalone system to complement the USN parts sheet I was keeping updated (along with the Mk.34 cruiser main battery directors) but alas life got ahold of me. I just remembered however that I have some Floating Drydock plans of CV-6 which may have some measurable versions of the Mk.33 on them. I'll try to scan them and send them across to you!

Thanks, I'd appreciate that. You've set the bar for these drawings and I'm using your Washington and Alaska works for techniques and guidance.
