Nice catch, did it have the MAFFS module on it? The newer ones (think MAFFS 2) have the paratrooper door modified on the port side with the water/extinguishing foam coming out of a tube.

Cheers Neil. I am only assuming it has the Module still fitted! https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/ ... 2_test.jpg
