SAN ANTONIO CLASS LANDING PLATFORM DOCK

SAN ANTONIO CLASS LANDING PLATFORM DOCK

(LPD-17)

United States

- Thanks to 'Werewolf'

LPD - 17 USS San Antonio
LPD - 18 USS New Orleans
LPD -19 USS Mesa Verde
LPD - 20 USS Green Bay
 

Replacing many of the older and less flexible landing ships, the San Antonio is one of, if not the, most modern landing ship in the world.  Capable of carrying a variety of assets, the LPD-17 is unhindered by the need for specialized protection units.  Even the Army has contracted a ship for expanded amphibious operations.

  As most of the world's warfare is accessible by shoreline, the landing ship has found new life and capability.
