About the No. 1 Air Cushion Landing Craft:
The LCAC-1 class Air Cushion Landing Craft (LCAC) is a hovercraft-based landing craft developed and operated in the United States. The Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force procured six of these LCACs between 1993 and 2000 to be mounted on the Osumi-class transport ships.
The LCAC's hull is made of light metal and has a rubber skirt all around the bottom of the hull. It is equipped with two lift fans for buoyancy and two gas turbines for propulsion, and navigates using a variable-pitch propeller and swivel thrusters at the stern. It has a carrying capacity of approximately 50 tons and can transport one Type 10, Type 90, or Type 74 tank, or four armored vehicles or large trucks. The crew consists of five members: the captain, engineer, navigator, deck crew (deck engineer), and loadmaster. Initially, it was treated as a boat carried by the Osumi-class transport ships, but in April 2004 it was upgraded to a Self-Defense Force vessel and named the No. 1 type air cushion boat, and belongs to the 1st Air Cushion Boat Squadron, which is under the command of the 1st Transport Squadron, which is composed of three Osumi-class transport ships.
