It's Saturday night, my wife and daughter are away, I'm not at work...NOT under the influence of alcohol or recreational medication...and I'm posting this... 
One of the Washington "Cherry Trees" that were never built...so the stats are just conjecture...
(and are a work in progress) - these stats could be easily converted to CoD
As always, I apologise in advance if there are any errors - the fault is solely mine, and I freely welcome constructive criticism and discussion.
References include...
British Battleships of World War Two. (1976)(Alan Raven and John Roberts)
Battleships and Battlecruisers 1905 - 1970. (1973)(Siegfried Breyer)

Conway's All the World's Fighting Ships (1906 - 1921)
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G3_battlecruiser
I have also used the Navweaps website.
I have used a combo of the original plans and what could have been added in pre WWII reconstruction(s) / refit(s).
Possible names include Invincible, Indomitable, Inflexible and Indefatigable, but this appears to have been conjecture (However, my observation is that most people nowadays accept that these were the intended name(s).).
Proposed stats:
G3 class Fast Battlecruiser (7+)
Hull: 193
