WEBF mate, never, I say again never, take what is in Jane's as fact! For years they perpetrated a myth that USS Independence (I think it was) had had her port lift moved aft as part of a SLEP.

I don't think 28 have ever been to sea with HC3 and certainly would struggle given non-folding head, non-folding tail and all sorts of other weight-saving measures.....never mind the airframe, which is dissolving away even on the HM1!
