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.
