Guys Im in the process of building a Sherman with the T34 Calliope launcher on the top. Its actually the old Monogram Screamin Mimi Sherman. A couple of questions came up in my mind and Im hoping people who know more about the vehicle could help me out

1. How many wires would there be sticking out from the turret to go to the rocket tube, I have seen a few models with only 3 wires sticking out and then splitting into smaller ones going to the tubes, and still I have seen a whole bunch of wires from each tube individually going down to the turret. Is there a standard for the wirings at all?

2. If I decide to depict the tank carrying empty tubes, should the wires still exists from them or are they suppossed to have been "burned out" from the last rocket launch?

3. If the tubes are loaded with rockets, how will it look like at the rear of it, Ive seen blurry pics showing something like a cover at the back of each tube.

Thanks for all the advice
