Imperial German Navy Zerstörer (destroyer) SMS V 99. Officially designated as "large torpedo boat" or "ocean-going torpedo boat", these ships were to a great degree equivalent to its contemporaneous destroyers of other navies and were numbered sequentially as torpedo boats.
V 99 was one of eight ships of the B 97 class and the only one lost in WW 1. The class leader was transferred in 1920 to Italy as war reparation. She operated from December 1924 until January 1939 as Regia Marina Cesare Rossarol. The other six vessels were scrapped after the end of WW 1.
