Someone knew information about this blueprint of aegis battle ship?

Clearly fake/fantasy.

To me the most obvious tell is that the helo pad (already in an insane and terrible spot) has a lineup line for an approach though a piece of the superstructure. Whoever sketched that doesn't understand what the angled lineup lines are for and just copied them over from a standard aft helo pad. If an actual naval architect was going to draw something with a weird side helo pad like that, the markings would probably look like the helo spots on an LHD.

My naval knowledge is very limited, but I don't think planar radar antennas could withstand the shock wave when the guns were fired. During World War II it was customary to throw seaplanes into the sea before entering combat.
 
Except for the port-side helo/drone pad, I'd say that this one is not insane, however I share others' concern about the planar radar antennas' ability to withstand the overpressure from the guns. I wonder how much engineering it would take to "harden" the antennas and other electronics. Probably a lot......

They probably could - after all, they were designed to withstand the overpressure from nuclear blast.

Not sure why, the EMP would likely destroy everything behind the antennas...

The EMP isn't much of a problem for warships. They are big metal boxes grounded in water - essentially a floating Faraday cages. As long as cables going in & out are equipped with protection breakers and waveguides are shielded properly, EMP is not a big concern.
