Welcome to Subsim Mark! I can't really say why your deckgun disappeared when you received the conning tower upgrade modification, but I can tell you that your receiving a new boat depends on your performance. As a matter of fact, your ability to get conning tower modifications also depends on performance, despite what stage of the war it is. I disagree with this totally, since this is an arcadish concept. Modifications, once deemed advantageous, were employed ASAP.
If it makes you feel any better, I'm also playing in a Tambor in late 44', and I still have the early war conning tower mod. At this stage, I should have the late war style. Although I play RFB, my advice is to be sure you complete the objectives assigned to you, and rack up as much tonnage as you can. Then you should be offered a newer command.
