Amazing. Israel could make one of those. Since there’s no need for a runway and landing strip, it can be shorter and more maneuverable, use less material, require less power. If we don’t have them yet, we better get them yesterday. This can be used for invading Iran! You just made my week. Thanks.
That is a photo of an American LHA. Their purpose is to transport about 2000 Marines to a conflict. We've had amphibious assault platforms (helo carriers) for decades. My first ship back in 1976 was an LPH - the predecessor to the LHA.
Oops, that’s actually a LHD - newer than a LHA, but same mission.
