SMS Crocodill

SMS Crocodill was a steam gunboat of the Jäger class built for the Prussian Navy in the late 1850s and early 1860s. The ship was ordered as part of a program to strengthen Prussia's coastal defense forces, then oriented against neighboring Denmark. She was armed with a battery of three guns. The ship saw very little activity during her career; she was commissioned only once, during the Second Schleswig War against Denmark in 1864. The ship was already in very poor condition by that time as a result of dry rot of her wooden hull. She was broken up in 1867, the first member of her class to be discarded.
