To me it looks more like a T-7, maybe an early one.
The T-5 has much larger thread diameter. The T-3 and T-6 have different increments.

Hi,


The shape of the windshield does not look like a regular T7 but is closer to a T3(UG) Т3(УГ). See below a drawing I have and an picture found on REIBERT.
But the thread is closer to a T7. So, could it be a kind of T7(UG) ? I didn't find any information. No markings on the ring just above the thread (like on the third picture)?
