Narrative:
LZ-46 was the most successful German Naval airship. She flew 42 reconnaissance missions and 17 attacks on England, dropping 22,045 kg of bombs. This was despite the fact that the High Command took her out of service during 1917 and 1918.
Rather than allow her to become war reparations, her crew destroyed her on 23 June 1919.
