I have absolutely no doubt in my mind that's what they did, you're right they added the same steel armor plate all around the turret.

The near tank you can clearly see the weld marks around the edges on the turret. Also, you can see they didn't quite align the "plates" evenly on the left side of the turret.

On the far tank the weld marks (Or scars if you will.) look cleaner and you can see a "white mark" at the bottom of the joint between the plates also on the left side. This could simply mean it wasn't properly painted over.

Since the page flipped see the previous about the "White Triangle".

Regards,
Pat
