Using measurements from the conning tower casing from a Type XXI (3540 x 2160 mm) I was able to scale down to a Type VIIC conning tower casing length of 2950 mm and got a width of 1845mm. Can confirm this?

When I compare this with what I previous estimated, it was only out by 5 mm (2950 x 1850 mm), if my figures are correct it look like the Type XXI conning tower casing is a scale up version of the Type VIIC conning tower casing.
