HMAS Tarakan (L 129)
HMAS ''Tarakan'' (L 129) was a ''Balikpapan''-class heavy landing craft of the Royal Australian Navy (RAN). One of eight vessels built by Walkers Limited, ''Tarakan'' (named after the Australian landing at Tarakan during World War II) entered RAN service in 1973. During the vessel's career, ''Tarakan'' was deployed post-Cyclone Tracy as part of Operation Navy Help Darwin, undertook various surveying operations, was placed in reserve between 1985 and 1988, relocated an overpopulation of ''Tridacna gigas'' clams, was part of the INTERFET peacekeeping taskforce, and participated in a Pacific Partnership humanitarian deployment. ''Tarakan'' was decommissioned from Australian service in 2014, and is to be transferred to the Philippine Navy in 2015.

(詳細はAustralian Army's LSM-1 class landing ship medium and ALC 50 landing craft.〔Gillett, ''Australian and New Zealand Warships since 1946'', pgs 79, 125〕 They are long, with a beam of , and a draught of .〔Wertheim (ed.), ''The Naval Institute Guide to Combat Fleets of the World'', p. 26〕 The landing craft have a standard displacement of 316 tons, with a full load displacement of 503 tons.〔 They were propelled by two G.M. Detroit 6–71 diesel motors, providing 675 brake horsepower to the two propeller shafts, allowing the vessels to reach .〔 The standard ship's company is 17-strong.〔 The ''Balikpapan''s are equipped with a Decca RM 916 navigational radar, and fitted with two machine guns for self-defence.〔
The LCHs have a maximum payload of 180 tons; equivalent to 3 Leopard 1 tanks, 13 M113 armoured personnel carriers 23 quarter-tonne trucks, or four LARC-V amphibious cargo vehicles.〔〔Gillett, ''Australian and New Zealand Warships since 1946'', p. 79〕 As a troop transport, a ''Balikpapan'' class vessel can transport up to 400 soldiers between a larger amphibious ship and the shore, or embark 60 soldiers in six-berth caravans for longer voyages.〔 The vessel's payload affects the range: at 175 tons of cargo, each vessel has a range of , which increases to with a 150-ton payload, and when unladen.〔 The flat, box-like keel causes the ships to roll considerably in other-than-calm conditions, limiting their ability to make long voyages.〔
''Tarakan'' was laid down by Walkers Limited at Maryborough, Queensland on 12 December 1971, launched on 16 March 1972 and commissioned into the RAN on 15 June 1973.〔Swinden, ''Heavy Lifting for Four Decades'', p. 20〕
