Royal Australian Navy LHD Landing Craft (LLC)

Capable of being deployed from the Royal Australian Navy’s Adelaide-class LHDs, the LHS Landing craft (LLC) are equipped with radar navigation, GPS, gyro needle/magnetic and HF communications equipment, VHF and UHF. This enables them to operated over the horizon (greater than 37km) from the shore.

The LLCs are able to transfer men and equipment ashore from the LHDs, including the Australian Army’s M1A1 Abrams main battle tanks.
