Even though, it's not my set but I know it enough, from experience. It uses a 17HP4 CRT and a voltage doubler for higher B+. The tubes are in a series-parallel configuration, where the set you have is a newer model, using only one 600ma series string. That's the way, the US designed sets progressed to.
Yours is very similar to the US designs.
