they have 8 x LPD so thats 8 x 4 = 24 medium sized helicopters
if each helicopter can carry 30 marines thats a total lift of a 720 marines
imagine 720 marines coming in from the sea? very good force
hit the beech with all 4 x 8= 32 x LCAC loaded to the brink
easily you can land over 100 armoured vehicles with them
this is a very good amphibious assault force landing from air and area over 700 marines and 100 vehicles
serious punch and would form a very good flanking manoeuvre
now add the 2 x LHD with 30 helicopters each and 4 more x LCAC
you can see where we are going with the helicopters and marines force, thousands now
all the land vehicles come from the sea and the men from the air
