No radio

I’m not a well versed 'Marder II" guy, but am interested. I noticed, as Dan stated, there’s no radio. From what I’ve seen online, the radio stack is usually front right of the gun shield about where the stowed MG-34’s butt stock begins. There’s also little things like no flare gun round stowage/interior details present on others and photos I’ve seen. Are these things specific to the early production? I’m wondering if their absence is part of what distinguished it from mids or late?

The vehicle needs a radio no matter what version. The Actung Panzer books covers this vehicle well.

Not yet a 1/16 guy but this would look nice with my Dad Werk Puma. And if it’s a Marder II, it has to be fun. Interested.
