For what it's worth, I have the Polar Bear SIERRA II and it is a little squat. Deepstorm says 12.2m for S1 and 12.28 for S2 for beam.

The Sierra II has, as with many Russian submarines, a double hull, and the limber holes along the side would indicate a saddle-like double hull. You can see the Sierra II flattened deck structure, along with the modified sail (form the Sierra I) in these photos.
