About this Ranking

Amphibious warfare vessels enable the projection of ground forces from sea to shore, a critical capability for power projection and humanitarian operations. This category includes landing helicopter docks (LHDs), landing platform docks (LPDs), and tank landing ships. Nations with strong amphibious fleets can conduct expeditionary operations worldwide.
