Shackleton queries

I'm trying to make some sense of the various "Phase" modifications that were made to the Shackleton Mk.2 and Mk.3. I wonder if anyone has any clear knowledge of what the precise modifications were for each of these mods? I know they were mostly confined to equipment fits but precisely what seems to vary depending on the source of the information!

Any experts know anything on this subject?

The Phase mods 1-III are outlined in some detail in Chris Ashworth's "The Shackleton" book Ch4 pp 42 -44. It's a lot of items!

Yes, a lot of stuff, but a little unclear in parts. Also, I'm still not sure whether the Phase I, II and III improvements were identical on the Mk.2 and Mk.3 ?
