Endurance class landing platform dock ship : ウィキペディア英語版 | Endurance-class landing platform dock
The ''Endurance'' class landing platform dock ships (LPD) are the largest class of ships in the Republic of Singapore Navy (RSN). They were designed and built by Singapore Technologies (ST) Marine to replace the old ''County'' class tank landing ships (LST). The four ships form the 191 Squadron of the RSN. ==Planning and development== The navy's intention to purchase the ''Endurance'' class was revealed by former Defence Minister Dr. Tony Tan during his visit to Tuas Naval Base on 3 August 1996. These ships were to replace the five ex-United States Navy (USN) ''County'' class LSTs, which were acquired by Singapore from the United States in the 1970s. ST Marine was awarded the government contract to design and build the four ships – a significant milestone for the local defence and shipbuilding industries given the scale and extensiveness of the programme. Construction of ''Endurance'' began in early 1997, with the keel laid down at ST Marine's Benoi yard on 27 March 1997.
