The '''LC-A1''' is a class of amphibious landing craft manufactured by [[Bluefront Inc.]]. These craft are intended to deliver troops and equipment onshore from amphibious assault ships during amphibious assaults. The craft are operated by the [[Kivuian Navy]].

The landing craft are equipped with radar navigation, GPS, gyro needle/magnetic compasses and HF communications equipment. This allows them to operate up to 20 nautical miles from their mothership.

The LC-A1 incorporates a stern gate, allowing the loading and unloading of vehicles onto all landing craft within the dry stern dock, without having to open the gate to swap landing craft around. In turn, this saves having to dock down the landing platform, and allows re-stowing of vehicles while the landing platform is underway. There is a maximum limit of 12 tons for the transfer of vehicles in this configuration.
