As far as I know (which may not be worth a lot!) they don't; IIRC there's a note in the introduction of the book on the Kleine Kreuzer that this will be the last one in the series.

H. Fock, "Schwarze Gesellen" vols. 1-2 covers international destroyer/t-boat development from late 19th century to 1914; the follow-on, "Z Vor!" (again two vols) covers the 1914-1945 timeframe. Overall excellent books, but to my knowledge never translated into English and uneven as far as drawings are concerned.

Of course the Gr�ner bible on German warships has a volume dedicated to destroyers/t-boats, within the general limitations of that work, that is.
