I made this guys, what you think:
already before the expiration date establish in the Treaty of Stockholm, the Reichsmarine admiralty place an order for a design to replace most of their ocean going vessels of great war date. Two designs were requested for financial considerations, one Grosse (big) and one Klein (small), to see which was more viable, but was emphasised that should be long range and as light as possible.
