Yeah I saw that, I wonder what the story is. The other pic shows a rounded nose.

The early version had the flat nose, later version had the snout look.

I know a little about this bird. That is an early mark nose installed in place of the more graceful one in the first picture. It very well may be accurate for the particular paint scheme they are using these days.

Bluff nose was the Mk1.

Then they decided the nav/bombaimer might like room for an actual chart table.
