Hi I trying to finish my drawing of the HMCS Bonaventure before its 1967 refit but I have a mistake for the radar on the masts:
Someone can help me for the unknown radar ? It's another radar ? Or maybe the radar on the SPS-12 mast isn't the SPS-10 but what is it ?
Thanks for help !

May the other is the SPQ-2? It is a Canadian radar, not to be confused with the American radar of the same name, that is part of Talos fire control.

The year of enter in service doesn't match (1972) or the year of Hazegray website isn't correct.

Sorry I'm late to this.
Bonnie's plans list it as a "Sperry Mk.2 MOD.2".
I have access to her full plans* if you need any references.
*Which, unfortunately, I agreed not to scan and post online. And I'm trying to keep my working relationship with CFB Shearwater's archives civil.
