SOUTH CHINA SEA (Aug. 24, 2018) An F-35B Lightning II, attached to the “Avengers” of Marine Fighter Attack Squadron (VMFA) 211, launches from the flight deck of Wasp-class amphibious assault ship USS Essex (LHD 2) during a regularly scheduled deployment of the Essex Amphibious Ready Group (ARG) and 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU). The Essex ARG/13th MEU is a capable and lethal Navy-Marine Corps team deployed to the 7th fleet area of operations to support regional stability, reassure partners and allies and maintain a presence postured to respond to any crisis ranging from humanitarian assistance to contingency operations. The Essex ARG and 13th MEU is the first continental U.S. Navy/Marine Corps team to deploy with the new and increased multi-mission capabilities of the F-35B Lightning II, ultimately increasing the lethality and survivability of the amphibious force.

PACIFIC OCEAN (July 6, 2022) A landing craft, air cushion (LCAC) assigned to Assault Craft Unit (ACU) 5 approaches the well deck of amphibious assault ship USS Makin Island (LHD 8). LCACs bolster the interoperability of the U.S. Navy and Marines using Navy craft to transport Marine land vehicles and troops from ship to shore creating a more lethal force in support of naval expeditionary warfare. Makin Island is currently underway conducting routine operations in U.S. 3rd Fleet. (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 3rd Class Eloise A. Johnson)

Makin Island is designed to field an integrated amphibious force that can support operational commanders around the globe with both strike and amphibious capabilities. The Makin Island Amphibious Ready Group, comprised of amphibious assault ship USS Makin Island (LHD 8) and amphibious transport docks USS Anchorage (LPD 23) and USS John P. Murtha (LPD 26), is underway conducting integrated training operations with 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit in U.S. 3rd Fleet to prepare for an upcoming deployment.

Chassis n° 35500001A
The story of the Pre-production Range Rovers can seem confusing: seven Engineering Prototypes were built between 1967 and 1969 with the chassis numbers 100/1 to 100/7. These were followed by 27 Pre-production vehicles whose chassis numbers were the first in what became the final production vehicle chassis sequence, beginning with 35500001A for UK-spec vehicles and 35800001A for LHD export-spec cars. These were followed by 20 cars built for the Press Launch which had the chassis numbers 35500026A to 45A. The first car built to full production standard is considered to be chassis 35500046A.
This vehicle was built in late 1969 and is the first of the Pre-production vehicles. It carries chassis number 35500001A. It was sold by the company in April 1971 to Michael Forlong who was the producer of the two Range Rover promotional films ‘A car for all reasons’ and ‘Sahara South’. It had two further owners during which time it was given a cherished number plate and then a replacement age-related plate.
It was acquired in 1985 by Chris Greenwood who, with his brother Scott, carried out a painstaking renovation retaining all the original components. In 1990 the car was acquired by Peter Garside of the Huddersfield Land Rover Centre and exhibited in the showroom, rarely venturing out other than for magazine features or film work, until being offered for sale at the Salon Privé auction in September 2014.
We are delighted to have secured the loan of this important vehicle to the Dunsfold Collection.

Amphibious landing at Sandvik Black-Beach failed, exercise done all the same. First time see Marine in Action.
This might just be an Opel with vauxhall badging, since i don't think vauxhalls were ever sold as LHD.

Daewoo Espero at U-Pull-It. I've always liked these. Based on the same platform as the Vauxhall Cavalier. If anyone see's any for sale, I'd appreciate a heads up. I want to fit a C20XE in one and make a sleeper.

This view shows the stern of the US Navy's USS Bataan (LHD-5), a 41,150-tonne Wasp-class amphibious assault ship, whilst she was pierside at Norfolk Naval Station, Virginia, in 2012. Her location on the map may be out by a pier or two. An interesting array of defensive weapon systems can be seen arrayed across her stern. From left to right (port to starboard) two decks below the flight-deck are a 20mm Phalanx close-in weapon system, a 25mm Bushmaster cannon on the centreline below a RIM-162 Enhanced Sea Sparrow System launcher one deck above, and finally, on the starboard quarter, a RIM-116 Rolling Airframe Missile system.
Bataan can support amphibious landings in two forms: by landing craft, or by helicopter. In the 81x15.2m well deck, it can carry three Landing Craft Air Cushion (LCAC), 12 Landing Craft Mechanised (LCM), or 40 amphibious assault vehicles (AAVs), with another 21 AAVs on the vehicle deck. The flight deck has nine helicopter landing spots, and can operate helicopters as large as the Sikorsky CH-53 Sea Stallion and Boeing Vertol CH-46 Sea Knight. Two aircraft elevators move aircraft between the flight deck and the hangar; in order to transit the Panama Canal, these elevators need to be folded in.
The size of the air group varies depending on the operation: a standard air group used to consist of six BAe Harriers and four Bell AH-1W SuperCobras for attack and support, 12 Sea Knights and four Sea Stallions for transport, and three or four Bell UH-1N Iroquois utility helicopters. For a full assault, the air group could be maxed out at 42 Sea Knights, while a Wasp operating in the sea control or 'Harrier carrier' configuration carries 20 Harriers (though some ships of the class have operated as many as 24), supported by six Sikorsky SH-60 Seahawk helicopters for anti-submarine warfare. By and large, the CH-46 has been replaced by the Bell Boeing MV-22 Osprey on a squadron-by-squadron basis, amongst active forces, but the anticipated full conversion within all aviation combat elements - primarily the Reserves - is not due until 2019.
In 2009, Bataan was the first US Navy ship to host a full operational squadron of 10 Ospreys, when VMM-263 deployed aboard her.
She is capable of hosting 1,894 personnel of the US Marine Corps; almost the full strength of a Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) which contains around 2,200 Marines and sailors. Bataan can transport up to 2,860m2 of cargo, and another 1,858m2 is allocated for the MEU's vehicles, which typically consist of five M1 Abrams battle tanks, up to 25 AAVs, eight M198 155mm howitzers, 68 trucks, and up to 12 other support vehicles. An internal monorail is used to shift cargo from the cargo holds to the well deck.
Bataan has a hospital with 64 patient beds and six operating rooms. An additional 536 beds can be set up in an "Overflow Casualty Ward" as needed. In this role, Bataan was deployed to New York City immediately after the 11 September 2001 terrorist attack, but returned to Norfolk after it became clear that the numbers of injured were within the city's own capabilities. In 2010 she was again deployed in this role, this time for almost three months, to Haiti following a devastating earthquake.
