SMS Bayern[a] was the lead ship of the Bayern class of dreadnought battleships in the German Kaiserliche Marine (Imperial Navy). The vessel was launched in February 1915 and entered service in July 1916, too late to take part in the Battle of Jutland.
Her main armament consisted of eight 38 cm (15 in) guns in four
turrets, which was a significant improvement over the preceding König's ten 30.5 cm (12 inch) guns.[sup][url=en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SMS_Bayern#cite_note-bigger_guns-2][b][/url][/sup] The ship was to have formed the nucleus for a fourth battle squadron in the [url=en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_Seas_Fleet]High Seas Fleet[/url], along with three of her [url=en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sister_ship]sister ships[/url]. Of the other ships only one—[url=en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SMS_Baden][i]Baden[/i][/url]—was completed; the other two were canceled later in the war when production requirements shifted to [url=en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U-boat]U-boat[/url] construction.
[i]Bayern[/i] was commissioned midway through the war, and had a
limited service career. The first operation in which the ship took part
was an abortive fleet advance into the [url=en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_Sea]North Sea[/url] on 18–19 August 1916, a month after she had been commissioned. The ship also participated in [url=en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Albion]Operation Albion[/url] in the [url=en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gulf_of_Riga]Gulf of Riga[/url], but shortly after the German attack began on 12 October 1917, [i]Bayern[/i] was mined and had to be withdrawn for repairs. She was interned with the majority of the High Seas Fleet at [url=en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scapa_Flow]Scapa Flow[/url] in November 1918 following the end of [url=en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_I]World War I[/url]. On 21 June 1919, Admiral [url=en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ludwig_von_Reuter]Ludwig von Reuter[/url] ordered [url=en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scuttling_of_the_German_fleet_at_Scapa_Flow]the fleet to be scuttled[/url]; [i]Bayern[/i] sank at 14:30. In September 1934, the ship was raised, towed to [url=en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosyth]Rosyth[/url], and scrapped.
