What I need is the Plessey AWS-2 radar and the Pollux (a.k.a TRS 3220) fire-control radar.
If any of these is already done please point me in the right direction so I could use the existing drawing.
Otherwise I'll have to try to draw them from scratch in which case I'll require some reference material.

According to the Naval Institute Guide to Combat Fleets of the World the Erin'mi class Patrol boats/corvettes are equipped.
Lucky for us, PB drew that one a while ago.

Thanks, Thiel!
This is just the AWS-2 though, right?

Yes.
The only drawing of the Pollux FCR is in need of an update

Don't know. Hazegray.org says they are Orion 10X

Ok, so in the end I've used AWS-2 drawn by Bill and I've drawn the Pollux thanks to the references and input provided by Thiel. Here's the fruit of labor: viewtopic.php?p=25892#p25892
