I can only think of getting a generic brass kit and scrounging it for anything that can be adapted or used, as-is. Tom's Modelworks, for example, makes some sets that are just generic, like "1/350 3-Rail set", and "US Navy Doors & Hatches". That might be the most expedient way. |

Don't limit yourself to 1:350 scale items. They are 12.5% too large for the 1:400 scale Heller kit. Check the 1:400 scale offerings from L'Arsenal.

They can get you many of the details in scale, as well as the airwing.
Or perhaps you should look at the White Ensign 1:400 scale frets for the HMS Illustrious
While not the same class as the Arromanches, many of the fittings would also work. WEM is also working on a fret for the HMS Collossus, which is of the same class as the Arromanches.
