I am modelling a few Hydran ships at the moment and before I get too far down the track I wanted to double check I am using the correct hull designs for the light cruiser variants. For the Hydran light cruiser variants with ship cards available for FC, my understanding is they are based on the following hull designs:

Mongol Variants - Apache Command Cruiser, Mongol-S Scout Cruiser, Tartar.

Horseman Variants- Cataphract Commando Cruiser, Mule LTT, New Escort Cruiser.

First, do note that you can get already built models of these ships using Shapeways.

Second, yes, I think you have them divided correctly. You can tell the difference between the base ship (except for the LTT) by simply counting the hull boxes. The Mongol has two more than the Horseman.

I'm surprised that Mike didn't mention it when he pointed you towards Shapeways .... while you can legally make your own models for your own use rather than buy from Shapeways (but why bother? and why not support ADB by buying their products?), you may NOT sell them, or even give them away.
