Navigation lights on Akula - Correct position?

[libor]

Hi all,
I would like to put navigation lights on my Engel AKULA and I am not sure on their correct position. I found the pictures showing three them on the upper rudder (on both sides and on the top) at the aft of the sub, but do not know, if there are any on the sail or somewhere else.
Can anyone help?
Thank you.

I found a typhoon plan that shows four lights on rudder.
(two of them are on TOP of the rudder)

Does anybody know if this distribution of lights is followed on all russian subs ? (I thinking on Alfa).

That is an Akula.
The detail is great on this model. I know about this one.

However, the light does not have a flip down cover. It opens on a 1/4 circle facing forward. It is also behind the escape module. Not in front of it.
