Regarding faired lines, I have noticed that many destroyers of the time period were very "slab-sided" amidships, with little smoothing. Unfortunately, I do not have any plans showing exactly how the transverse hull sections would have looked.
No worries for the years, they just refer to the class designation (there were R and S classes also in the 1940s). Any plan is actually welcome. Thanks.

Slab-sided amidship sections were common features also in later hull designs, including the hulls of the J and follow up classes .
And, just a wild guess, the hulls of R and S classes were probably not so different from the V&W hulls.
