The landing craft air cushion (LCAC) is a high-speed, over-the-beach, fully amphibious landing craft capable of carrying a 60-75-ton payload. It is used to transport weapons systems, equipment, cargo and personnel from ship to shore and across the beach. The advantages of air-cushion landing craft are numerous. They can carry heavy payloads, such as an M-1 tank, at high speeds. Their payload and speed mean more forces reach the shore in a shorter time, with shorter intervals between trips. The air cushion allows this vehicle to reach more than 70 percent of the world's coastline, compared to only 17% with conventional landing craft.
