Construction

Galvanized steel construction with one triple expansion engine and three locomotive boilers.[8] With this ship Schichau introduced the raised forecastle and bridge mounted well back from the bow, features which significantly improved seakeeping and became standard for German-built torpedo boats and destroyers until the end of the First World War.[9][10]

At the beginning of 1897, D 9 was the flagship of the IV. Torpedobootsdivision.[12]

At the beginning of 1900, D 9 was the flagship of the I. Torpedobootsflottille.[13]

In 1907, D 9 became a minesweeper flotilla flagship. Refitted in 1910 at Schichau-Werke, receiving three Marine-pattern boilers.[14]

After the outbreak of war in 1914 she was used for coastal defense duties until 1916 when she became a submarine training vessel. After the war ended she was retained by the Reichsmarine and used for minesweeping duties in 1919. Stricken on 7 December, 1920 and broken up the next year in Hamburg.[15]
