I know it’s not usual for me to put out these cries for help, but well I need help here, I’ve been looking for some time for pics of the new Landing Craft Medium that the Australian army are supposed to be getting (Thales AB2000 class) but it’s so hard to find anything. I read earlier this year that the program has been suspended due to these vessels failing in seaworthy tests and I can’t even find that info on the net, am I looking in the wrong areas?

Thanks Orko, I was actually looking for a pic of the deck area, I’ve seen some plans and I’d like to actually see how those plans translate into the real thing.

Indeed mate, and Wiki needs updating on this subject- 6 were built before the program was suspended.

You mean the LCM2000 project? AB2000 was the name of the first craft: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LCM2000
