Well done Terran, HMAS Tobruk is a modifided version of the Sir Bedivere class, built here in Australia and was able to take CH-47’s right from the start (something the british ships have just started undergoing modification to take). Back in the early 90’s the British wanted to buy Tobruk off us, we kept it but we sold the design modifications to them.

Wan: Mate it is indeed Sir Galahad, good on you, but uh sorry it’s not an LCU Mk9

AyalaBotto beat me to the USS Thomaston (LSD 28) … rats …. so I’ve got to give a different one:
The first ship is RFA SIR GALAHAD (L3005), of the SIR BEDIVERE CLASS. She was built in 1988 as replacement for the previous LSL by that name, which was lost during the Falklands conflict.
Number 2 may be a RN Landing Craft Utility (LCU) Mk 9

AB: oh you are good mate, well done, it is USS Thomaston.
Guess this round has proven harder than the rest huh? Or is it that everyone is bored now with this game?
