Singapore's Endurance Class LST
Article Abstract:
Singapore Technologies Marine is developing four STEM 1400 LST Class Landing Ship Tanks (LST) for the Republic of Singapore Navy (RSN). The new LSTs, which will replace RSN's aging and outdated ex-County Class LSTs, are designed to meet many new naval operational requirements of small navies such as the RSN. They are also fitted with the latest weaponry systems. The RSS Endurance is the first of these new class of LSTs that was launched in Mar 14, 1998 and will undergo harbor acceptance trials on Mar 1999.
