Have you got any photo of her ?

Deck guns were generally removed after July 1943, except those retained with special permission from BdU. Most Monsun boats had 105mm deck guns and a lot had early styles of bridges with minimal wintergardens.

U-195 was a type IX-D1 transport U-boat so did not require a deck gun. It reached Djakarta in November 1944 and stayed there after VE day commissioned as a Japanese boat.

You posted no picture or link so it is hard to comment further.
