Abstract
Purpose: LST-II is a special naval ship to carry out landing operations by transporting tanks, armored vehicles and military vehicles. Bad weather, maximum wave height of 4-5 m, caused damage to the LCM cradles while the LST-II No.O ship was moving to Thailand for training in February 2016. Methods: Based on the results of the field check, DTaQ conducted a study on the causes analysis and improvement measures. Results: The improvement plan that was derived was verified through a structural analysis and the improvement plan was applied to the follow-up ships. Conclusion: The improvement of LCM cradle has increased the safety of the crew and landing forces, and improved the operational efficiency.
