Interesting. A replacement landing craft to deliver armored and heavy equipment to the beachheads for the Army. Can’t think of too many scenarios this day and age of warfare this capability is needed. Still nice to have a few.

I can think of quite a few non-combat scenarios where that capability could come in handy, particularly after major natural disasters.

I bet some expeditionary support commands will get some. We have something similar already. I took these pictures at Camp Pendleton. A couple Army Reserve expeditionary support command 1 * commands have a few flat bottom landing craft like these. They can already carry a few tanks or a few trucks and they can cruise from San Diego to Alaska Non-Stop. They have a couple warrant officers and a crew of about 24. The United States Army Navy.

It’s better to have something and not need it than to need it and not have it.
