    I have this real hard case of curiosity. I have the Trumpy 32 F-6F 3N and I was wondering if there is that much difference between the two, besides the back window. I looked in the Squadron book and I really couldn't tell much there. From what I have seen in the kits review the only thing thats different between them are the decals.

    Any thoughts?

    Differences in cowling flaps, exhausts, canopy- the -5 was more streamlined, plus not having the rear windows, and the wing armament could be with the 20 MMs with .50s versus the .50s on the -3 and -5. Underwing details differed, think the -5 might have rocket stubs.
