==Description==
'''Landing Craft Support''' is a family of amphibious warfare vessels, originally designed for the United States Navy operations in the Pacific Theater. Two major types existed: Large and Medium, with British Fairmile Marine building their own iterations of the designs. Nearly all of these vessels survived until the end of World War Two, with many finding continued post-war use in both: military and civilian hands across the world. Nowadays, USS LCS(L)(3)-102 is open as a museum vessel in a town of Vallejo in California, United States.
