That's not what he's saying. He's just adding a bit of information for those of us who aren't intimate with Dutch landing crafts.

Maybe the expression 'look good' was wrong. Maybe it should have been 'look realistic', but anyway a damn good drawing

Is the NL LCA the same as the RN WWII LCA?

there is no LCA in this thread, and I am still researching to do the pre-1950/60 LCVP's/LCA's for the netherlands, so I don't know about that. I don't even know what kind of LCA's the netherlands had during WW2, if any. known to me is that after WW2 the Netherlands used some ex-british or ex-american units, if these were the standard models or if these were used during WW2, is unknown to me.

Sorry, I meant the Mk 1 LCVP (the comment above it suggests it was once called LCA).

well, the name LCA was given to the type of landing craft the LCVP's belonged to. so I understand your confusion. no need to apologise
to answer your question(now I understand it ): no, the mk 1's were build in 1964 and were polyester boats.
