This page is still in fairly rough draft, but "landing craft" was high on the "redlink" list of "wanted pages". This article will serve as an introduction to the specific kinds of historic landing craft. It does not attempt to replace the evolving article on amphibious warfare, which is no longer limited to landing craft for getting troops and supplies ashore, and no longer limited to a traditional beach.
