Been looking at my books. Have to admit that around 85% of them are about the Takao class, yes i know im a fanatic.

Have not found any photos from inside the bridge, and here we run into a problem.

Fot the Takao you se 3 greenhouses, guess what, the helm is not on any of them. Its actualy two floors below the lowest greenhouse.

First greenhouse is the obervasion deck, where all the huge bino`s are locatet. I have an awsome cut in half superstructure schematic of the Takao class. Im going to post my findings, but i have to make sure i kinda cut away some bits etc to make sure i dont get copyrazed...

Might do that this evening are latest tomorow noon

Here are a few titles from my book colection

Anatomy of the ship The heavy cruiser Takao
Imperial Japanese navy heavy cruisers 1941-45
The heavy cruiser Takao 1927-1937
Japanese heavy cruisers of WW2
Pictorial-IJN heavy cruiser Takao

So most info on the Takao i do have, but just not internal photographs of the command decks...wierd...

****

Found this one. Not a cruiser, but atleast some Helm stuf
