The Graf Zeppelin II (Deutsche Luftschiff Zeppelin #130; Registration: D-LZ 130) was the last of the great German rigid airships built by the Zeppelin Luftschiffbau during the period between the World Wars, the second and final ship of the Hindenburg class named in honor of Paul von Hindenburg. The airship, which made just 30 flights over 11 months in 1938-39 before being scrapped in 1940, was the second zeppelin to carry the name "Graf Zeppelin" (after the LZ 127) and thus is often referred to as Graf Zeppelin II.
