  I don't know if this is an SU-2 (maybe SC-2), but it's what's on the USS Kidd in Baton Rogue.

thanks for your reply,but I'm looking  for the SU-2(conical) and the one you referance is the SU(round).The SU-2 is similar to the SPS10 with a slightly different shape.

  OK, just in case some good pictures of the SPS-10 would help, try this:

Thanks. I've been in contact with Gene  Hays about the SPS10 before to get  info to build a 1/144 scale antenna.He also helped me obtain repair and maintainance manuals for the antenna so I can possibly repair the 10 on the USS The Sullivans, DD537  in Buffalo,NY (I was an ETR  on the USS Ingersoll,DD652.)

radartec, I have rooted around on various websites and have not found SU-2 radar in PE, in any scale. Must have been a limited edition kind of thing for that time frame?
