Amphibious Landing Crafts


These hovercrafts can land 71 tons of equipment pretty much anywhere there's an even beach. A few of these would have helped out greatly on D-Day.

We spoke to a navy mechanic who follows this pair of landing crafts to maintain them. For the last while they've been carried in the USS Bonhomme Richard, but in the past they've been attached to other ships.
