Paul,
The screen that is cast in the Ram OP kit is a modified part from the old Eduard set for Tamiya's Lee. None of the pics in the links provided by Martin above are really completely correct for the Ram. The semi circular braces across the edges of the screen are most common. I can see if I can dig up the number for the old set if you'd like. If you are building the OP kit with the limited traverse of the turret, the turret box, and the cable reels, it very hard to see the deck screen under there and may not be worth the effort to cut out and replace. If your thinking about the Badger that you've ordered, it doesnot have the deck screen at all, but was plated over and a raised armored intake was added. Hope this helps,
Rob |
