ZR-2 was bought from Britain in October 1919, but crashed in 1921 before the US Navy could take delivery of it. It did not officially receive its US designation, though it was painted in accordance of its planned Navy designation. Notably, it was initially called R38. Akron and Macon were the only airships built from the same plans.[[Citing sources citation needed]]
