LCVP and LCA

Pegasus LCVP landing craft.

Airfix LCVP in light gray, with the Pegasus LCVP and two Airfix USMC figures.

Close up.

Both are pretty good and both have their own good and bad parts.

LCA in resin, the LCA and the LCVP are the two most common landing craft used by the US in WWII.

The LCA was armored and had two machine guns in the front so it was good for landing on opposed beaches.
