German/Prussian battleship created in 1913 as response for Queen Elizabeth-class battleships. It's also first superdrednought in Kaiserliche Marine. The ship was first used during Operation Albion, during which it hit a mine and was disabled for several months. Later he participated in smaller naval operations. In 1919 (like most of the German fleet), it was sunk in Scapa Flow, then raised and scrapped in 1935. It was the most powerful ship in the Kaiserliche Marine. It was armed with 4x twin 380mm guns, 15x single 150mm guns, 4x single 88mm guns and 5x 600mm torpedo tubes. The ship had three sister ships: Baden, Wuttemberg and Sachsen (the construction of the last two was not completed due to the end of the war and lack of funds).
