Defiant modelled in COD is incorrect

[Blackdog_kt]

I think he means that retracting the turret into the cruising position doesn't result in the sloped parts of the canopy raising like they should (which would give the appearance you describe) or that the turret doesn't even "park", but that the in-game 3d model is always depicted with the canopy fairing for the turret in the down/combat position, which gives the characteristic sloped shape.
