Template information:

In the form of U.S.S. In 2001, the IWO JIMA (LHD-7) commissioned the US Navy's seventh "WASP" class vessel - a class of modern multi-purpose landing craft. These ships, based on the Tarawa class, can carry on board up to 40 V / STOL helicopters and aircraft (with vertical / short take-off and landing) as well as up to 1894 Marines. In addition, this "floating dock" has several landing craft on board, which are used to transport vehicles and crew to the landing beach. The main mission of these units is therefore to support the landing operations of the US Navy. However, they can also be used for humanitarian or rescue operations. U.S.S. IWO JIMA is equipped with a continuous, 257.2 m long flight deck. Its maximum speed is 20 knots. Crew: 104 officers and 1004 regular soldiers. Its medical facility can provide intensive medical care for up to 600 wounded in four main and two emergency operating rooms.
