=== Amphibious Warfare Ships === Amphibious naval units (ANUs) possess the "Landing Craft" Special Capabilities icon. Some are well armed and have good defensive values. They are also known as "gators" - after the amphibious alligator. Only the LCC-Command Ship can capture enemy territory. ANUs can either partially beach themselves or extend long ramps onto the shore and so are capable of landing embarked passenger units on a beachhead without the presence of a sea-pier. Any land unit unit and be put ashore - even non-amphibious land units. None of the ANUs can carry aircraft, not even helos. U.S. ANUs are designated with the first letter 'L'. The following are some amphib ANU designations: * LC - Landing Craft * LCT - Landing Craft, Tank (technically a boat, since in RL it can be taken aboard a ship) * LCU - Landing Craft, Utility (also a boat) * LSU - Landing Ship, Utility * LPH - Amphibious Assault Ship * LPD - Amphibious Transport, Dock * LSD - Landing Ship, Dock * LST - Landing Ship, Tank * LSM - Landing Ship, Medium * LCC - Command Ship In RL the TL 64 U.S. LPD 4 Austin design combines the functions of three different classes of ships; the landing ship (LSD), the tank landing ship (LST), and the attack cargo ship (LKA). The Amphibious Transport, Dock, in RL is used to transport and land Marines, their equipment and supplies by embarked landing craft or amphibious vehicles augmented by helicopters in amphibious assaults. Regardless of their letter designation, all SR2020 Amphib units perform the same job - land units and supplies onto a beachhead.
