USN MKIII MOD2 Telescopic gunsight

[D.James]

Howdy Y'all.. My first post here, hopefully in an appropriate spot... Y'all seem quite the knowledgable crowd.

I'm drawing a 3-d mod of the Douglas TBD-1 Devastator and I am looking for images/ technical drawings of the USN MKIII MOD2 Telescopic gunsight
as well as the MKXXIV torpedo director sight..



Also any tech drawings or photos of the torpedo well/fairing on the TBD.

Any help appreciated. Thanks in advance!

attached is a sample image of the 3/4 completed model

Not a drawing but came up with this picture from the book Opsrey book Devistator Units of the US Navy.

Wow! Quick reply!... Thank you!

Much clearer scan than the one I found online...The above mentioned torpedo director can be seen too, mounted below the gunsight.

Your welcome, second picture. This one a side view from the book Squadron signal on the devistator.

Here is a clearer image.

Weird, honestly I believed until now that it was used for a better view of the target ships when divebombing, it must work as the ww1 scope sights.

Best I can find on a torpedo installation.

Thank you again, Micdrow!...These are a huge help!

Nice images, by the way when I wrote "divebombing" i was refering to the scope in the Dauntless, obviously the Torpedo armed Devastator was not a divebomber.
