Radar Query

The game has a limited number of interior 3D models. I think it has one for the S boats and one for all the others, but I don't recall if the Porpoise has its own model or if it uses the same as the Gar/Tambor/Gato/Balao boats use. Because of this, the radar displays are modeled in already.

Personally, I'd prefer to have the model change, but that would be a bit more work, and I don't know how hard it would have been to get the engine to change models based on equipment availability. Suppose you chose not to or did not have the renown to buy the SJ radar? What if you have the SJ-1 improved radar? I guess they chose the easy route and just modeled the displays but left them inoperable until the gear was installed.
