As of 13 Jun 42 three ships carrying 37mm AT guns intended for the KNIL had in fact unload in Australia instead.
SS Tabian carried four guns
SS Mapia carried two guns
SS Bantam carried four guns.
All were handed over to the Dutch in Australia.
It would be interesting to know when the standard US barrels, breeches, recoil, etc. were put on the carriages of the NF&O weapons.
