The landing vehicle is a modern American transport vehicle. The first prototypes of the vehicle were formed in the 1980s and mass production was started in 1986 and still continues. It is estimated that approximately 90 vehicles of this type are produced. LCAC is operated by four gas turbines. Hovercraft's weapons usually consist of two 12.7 mm machine guns, but it is possible to expand this with additional machine guns or automatic grenade launchers.

LCAC's design work began in the early 1970s and was extended until the beginning of the 1980s, as the project was quite complex. However, as a result, a technically developed, completely amphibious, high -speed (over 70 knots) flying vehicle was created; This was able to carry up to 75 tons of deck cargo while maintaining a speed of 40 knots. LCAC can buy both armored personnel carriers (eg LAV-25) and MBTs (eg M1 Abrams) on a ship. Hovercraft is also very easy to install and evacuate. Such vehicles are used primarily by the US navy and the Japanese self -defense forces.
