@Enjoi:
Your diagnosis is correct.

This was a bug in the original stock SH3, which caused a rotating radar (eg FuMO30) placed in position 1 of the conning tower (ie, designed for the FuMO29, which was intended to be fixed to the front) to rotate through the conning tower. You must be using a 'Type II turm' with FuMO29.

This bug has been given temporary fixes by all the super-mods, but in different ways. None is very satisfactory.

I made a hard-code fix some time ago, but this required ALL turms (including those altered/created by other modders) to have changes made. There was so little interest that I kept the hard-code fix for myself - most people seem to prefer decoration to functionality. It would have been supplied as part of the Stiebler hard-code patch. My fix also caused the radio d/f aerial to stop rotating with a few turms.
