I use the Typ XVIII sub as the filling for my IJN sumarines, the problem with the Typ XVIII conning tower is that no matter what I try, the AA gun stays an AA turret !

I want to change that. The only file where it was stated AA turret was in the upcGe under Upgrades.xxx, there were two parapgraphs pertaining to the AA turret.

I'd like to change it for a Vierling, and add a couple double AA guns.

How do I do that ?
thanks

that's a big help :up:
I was stuck with the same damn turret for my Jyunsen B ship, now I'll be able to hopefully change both !
This ship here will later be added to the 3 jap sub mod I made.

I don't think I'll do the Sen Toku yet if ever, too darn big if you ask me.

thanks Mikayl !:up:
