An issue which has irritated me since SH 4 came out is the Gato/Balao control rooms and the placement of the ladder. I have been on two Gato and one Balao class submarine in my life and every photo have seen the ladder is between the dive plane stations, to the left of the diving officer, not behind him. I'm not sure about the Tambor Class but since so similar to the Gato guessing this is applies as well. Vicker's revamp of the interiors really brought life to the the subs, something UBI failed to do. I ask, can the ladder be moved? lol Also, anyone know of a Gato/Balao where the ladder from control room to conning tower is as shown in SH 4 ?
