The first U-boat launched by AG Weser in Bremen was the U-25 on 14 Feb, 1936, but the last U-boat launched was the U-3044 on 1 Mar, 1945. This refers to U-boats that were actually commissioned into the Kriegsmarine.

The last actual launch was U-3051 on 20 Apr, 1945. That boat was not commissioned however.

XIBU-112 - U-1154 boats 977 - 980 1939These 4 large U-cruisers were probably not laid down but one of them, U-112, possibly went a bit further than the rest. Information on those is very limited. Cancelled in May 1940.

Some claim the U-112 was not only completed but sailed on a mysterious journey against the US in 1945 where she was sunk with all hands. A project known as CA-35 was founded to proof a group of divers had found the wreck but no evidence has been found to confirm the story and no evidence has either been found she was ever completed.
