F45 vs F145H

Outside of size & maneuverability, is there any advantage with the F145H compared to a F45, assuming both are 3-16?
Thanks

Due to 45 & F145 semi-integral plows utilizing same plate(A13799) & standard(A17507) for plow bottoms may I ask where the increased clearance for crop flow originates between plow models?
 
The F45 is a three point hitch plow with the bottoms closer together than the F145. Also the F45 is a much lighter frame plow as it does not
have the big backbone of the F145. Most F45 plows are going to be category I hitch. Category II was an option but rarely seen. Most people
that wanted a cat. II bought the heavier F125 plows. I twisted dads F45 3 bottom when I caught a rock ledge with a 2510 also broke a roller
assembly. Many 3 bottom F45 plows are twisted along with the older 810's. The F125 rarely twisted. Here is my F145 on a 2520. Tom

I think you are correct after viewing side view of each model that the distance between bottoms front to rear is greater on semi-integral vs 3 pt model
 
Tx Jim, on the F125 they made 2 different spacings. The one with the bottoms closer together like the F45 was mostly seen in 4 bottom size but
they did make a 3 bottom (short as I like to call them). The 5 bottom F125's were all the short plows. Tom
 
The 145H is set to plow a little deeper isnt it? The frogs are slightly different than a 145.

Been a couple decades since I retired the 145H and went to an IHC 720, but based on memory the 145H was a good plow for its day, just not in 150+ bu cornstalks.
The wear parts are mostly the same but watch out for some backing pieces to be different with the H designation.
