English-language accounts of the later ships are treated cautiously because they appear more detailed than the Spanish material consulted. The stated combined diesel, electric, and gas arrangement retains the same power supply. An extra 600 tons and five metres of length, with unchanged beam and draught, are said to accompany a six-knot reduction in top speed. That reduction is questioned because the changes do not readily explain it. No replacement speed figure is established.
