Hue's suggestion gets my vote, Dave. After all, the ARB was intended to
be used in tanks as well. :-) The Navy aircraft compliments list I
put on my docs web page is the only one I have seen but was apparently
assembled circa late 1942 as the ARB was just coming out, judging from
the aircraft types. I have no doubt that a lot of RUs were replaced by
the ARB as time went on.
