Tiger I late model with long hinge loader's hatch

[dsbc]

Hi,
I'm looking for photos of Tiger I late model with older (long hinge) loader's hatch.
I saw reference to an interim version of the late model turret ... which had only 25 mm roof armor, the older loader's hatch, no pistol port, and no close-in defense weapon installed. From photos I've seen so far ... has: late model with steel road wheels, late model cupola, and older loader's hatch. But haven't seen details showing if these also have 25 mm roof armor, no pistol port, and no close-in defense weapon.

here is a link to a photo of 214 Tiger I in Hungary:

Looking at more photos online ... it appears Tiger 222 of 101 during Normandy, also had the older style loader hatch. It has steel road wheels of late model.
And this Tiger 223 ... linked here. Zoomed in, it looks like older style loader hatch and steel road wheels.

I wonder if these Tigers also got turret roof armor upgrade, or not?

223 is a renumbered turret swap.

Thanks Michael.

Your previous post about 223 helped me find some other forum discussions ... thanks again.

Some interesting production variations on some of these Tigers, which I'm interested in. Steel road wheeled Tigers with different turret configurations.

I'm trying to find out for sure if one of these Tigers had the older 25 mm turret top armor, along with the early version (long hinge, center handle) loader's hatch.
And if one of more did exist ... what unit number/s?
