LCA? Were they landing craft or riverine gunboats? Wood construction?

I was referring to the T-1, T-101, and T-103-class landing ships, which were a tad bigger than these. :lol: Even so, nice work on them!

They were steel-hulled motor boats that could carry 13-15 troops. The C class was also designed to be used for coastal patrol and anti-PT boat action.

The British LCM (9) Class
The prototype L-3507 was delivered in 1963 and Fearless and Intrepid could carry four each. Fourteen were built 1964-66 (2 by Vosper, 6 by Richard Dunston, 4 by Brooke Marine and 2 by Bolson & Sons.). Could carry two Centurions or 100 tons of cargo.

Thanks to BH for the source material to complement the photo sources so well. This was an unintended by-product of another project but its good to have this on SB.
