SAN ANTONIO class ship
The
San Antonio Class is the
latest class of amphibious force ship of the US
Navy. The ships of this class transport the US Marine Corps
‘mobility triad’, comprising advanced amphibious assault
vehicles, landing craft air-cushion and
the MV-22 Osprey tilt-rotor aircraft, around the world.
San Antonio class ships are the most survivable
amphibious ships ever put to sea. Their design
incorporates state-of-the-art self-defense
capabilities; and includes facilities for command
and control, communications, computers, and
intelligence.
The San Antonio class was
largely designed with the metric system, specifying
millimeters and meters for linear dimensions. This
is the first major U.S. Navy ship class to be built
this way.
In 2018, Huntington
Ingalls Industries performs advance construction
activities of LPD-30 ship which is the first San
Antonio class Flight II LPD. Flight II vessels will incorporate modifications to
feature a ship-to-shore connector, CH-53K helicopter
and improved troop armament stowage.

In 2012, former Navy
Secretary
Donald C. Winter met us in person at our
workplace to commission several models. One of the
models was a 57" San Antonio class USS San Diego. Anther
one was the CA-6 for a permanent display on the USS San
Diego LPD-22 of which his wife was a sponsor. Two other
models served as presents to LPD-22's officer during the
ship's commissioning ceremony in May 2012.
Nobody builds better
warships than ModelShipMaster.
