well Uboat.net says,
Two 2cm C/38 were fitted on bridge and on the additional platform which became known as the Wintergarten. The Turmumbau II was only an interim solution and was first installed in November 1942. The first boats which were rebuilt were the IXC40 boat U-193 and the VIIC boats U-237 and U-955.
So tower IX/2 isnt there until nov of 42. My question now is twofold:
When did the IX/3 become avialable and does anyone know how to fix the periscopes in it? They ride out of the shears a good 2 meters when they should sit flush.
