Im building the Dragon M4A3 76mm kit but there are no holders for antennas in it nor reference?

Checking pictures in Concord books I see many Shermans without them?
Was that common?
Is there a good close up picture of the arrangement available on the net?

Thanks.

The best picture I could find of the standard US antenna base is this one

left side of the picture, spare antenna bases can be sourced from Academy Shermans if the piece isn't in the Dragon kit

The antenna on the T-23 turret with the 76mm gun was fitted on the other side of the turret to the rear of the commander's cupola. See the fitting in the background of this photo

Hope this helps.

Antenna bases are also available in turned brass from ArmorScale

Thank you very much for your help, David!

Those pics were exactly what I needed.

Cheers

Formations Models also sells a set of these US Antenna - both Mount and Antenna. Inexpensive and nicely done in resin.
