Greek battleship Kilkis

''Kilkis'' (Greek: Θ/Κ Κιλκίς) was a 13,000 ton originally built by the US Navy in 1904–1908. As she was purchased by the Greek Navy in 1914, and renamed her ''Kilkis'', along with her sister , renamed . ''Kilkis'' was named for the Battle of Kilkis-Lahanas, a crucial engagement of the Second Balkan War. Armed with a main battery of four guns, ''Kilkis'' and her sister were the most powerful vessels in the Greek fleet.
The ship saw limited action during World War I. Greece's pro-German monarch, Constantine I opted to remain neutral until October 1916, when pressure from the Triple Entente forced him to abdicate in favor of a pro-Entente government. For the remainder of the war, ''Kilkis'' operated solely as a harbor defense ship. In the immediately ensuing Greco-Turkish War of 1919–1922, ''Kilkis'' supported Greek landings in Turkey and participated in the final Greek sea-borne withdrawal in 1922. She remained in service into the early 1930s, when she was used for a training ship. During the German invasion of Greece in 1941, she and her sister were sunk in Salamis by German Ju 87 Stuka dive-bombers. The two ships were ultimately raised in the 1950s and broken up for scrap.
