I had a quick look at the details on Wikipedia and there do seem to be some differences between what is in the sketches and the article, most notably in the power plant layout and the armament. Also as I've noted, the sketch depicts US style cage masts, the Wikipedia ...

I have no further information beyond what is contained in the image...
