Chinese Produced Zubr Landing Craft Air Cushion (LCAC) via Chinese Military Review.


The Chinese are now building the Zubr LARGE landing craft.

It will be interesting to see how they perform amphibious assaults.  We're already starting to see a hybrid approach.  Large deck LHDs and LPDs...along with big LCACs, mixed with a mechanized Marine Corps (to a greater extent than our own).

Japan is making moves to protect its claims on the disputed islands.  China is building forces to take them.

This is gonna get good (in a bad way).
