This might help. You'll need to run it through Babblefish on Alta Vista to translate...but they have some really good photos.

A much later edit: I should add that this link was given to me by a member here, so I'm passing on the knowledge.....

Hi David!

Sorry for the late reply on this issue, but 95Bravo has already pointed you to the right direction...

The chinese type 33 were the chinese built under license Romeo's - the only difference as you have pointed out is in the painting scheme.

Just choose the one you like more and go for it!
Keep us posted and... by the way:

Welcome aboard!
