All the pictures of this aircraft appear to show it without a radiator or oil cooler . Is this because they are simply missing ?

Thanks , I suspected that , my doubt was created by an article in a reputable modelling magazine which stated these items needed to be removed to accurately portray this aircraft from the RAF Museum .

Yes I think that is the case. The radiator was retractable (but still visible). and the oil cooler (Potts or Vickers?) was standard on all the variants except the Hector which had a different type.
