Mike Where did you aquire such info re shipping losses and their cargos ? I have good reason to believe that most of the 600 odd GL III(c) gunlaying radars manufactured in Canada by Research Enterprises Ltd were shipped across the Atlantic to the UK where many were transhipped to other war zones. I would be most interested to learn how many never reached their intended destination due to shipping losses. I suspect that one of the destinations was Russia via the Murmansk run.
