Not much detailed but might be useful: http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Tlv1FMdnyG...VIIA+plans.png

That was the problem I ran into- scale model builder sites had numerous builders complain of models labeled as one thing but contained models of different items in the box, usually the VIIB's pictured, and the VIIC's in the box. A casual modeller wouldn't notice the difference, but some of the 'historians' went nutz when they opened the box and saw a turm IV with a decal set for U-47.

BTW, thanks. The first link is typical of what I'm talking about- the parts tree shows 2 rudders tho the box is labelled Type 7A.


The second link is what I'm after, but it's not nearly as detailed as I really need- but a terrific start.
